An increased emphasis on the scientific application of chemical engineering is an integral part of the Chemical Engineering Technology program. The MacPhail School of Energy offers the benefit of small class sizes and hands-on training in state-of-the-art labs by industry-experienced and professionally trained instructors Each academic year consists of two 15-week semesters and students generally take two years to complete the program. Chemical Engineering Technology is currently only offered full-time; distance and continuing education options are not available. Your Career A diploma in Chemical Engineering Technology can lead to a career in engineering design, computer-based process simulation, technical sales, field operations and environmental work. Chemical Engineering Technology graduates will be qualified to work as engineering design assistants, production operators, technologists, technical sales people, environmental field technicians and production technologists. Oil Sands expansion holds promising opportunities for those who complete the Chemical Engineering Technology program.
