3 rationale chemical industry in Belgium is big mainly consists of multinationals (ExxonMobil, BASF, Bayer, TOTAL, Monsanto, Borealis, Evonik,...) chemical engineers work in an international environment integration of foreign students (with conservation of quality, EURHEO, Erasmus-programmes) upcoming exchange programmes with Université de Montréal, Univerisity of Delaware, Université de Nancy internationalisation is the trend for the next coming years

4 rationale focus to recruit European students with bachelor degree from other universities of good standards unique aspects of chemical engineering g research in Leuven with respect to other European programmes process intensification chemical product design microbial process technology exergy route to sustainable chemistry

5 new programme (120 ECTS) 9 ECTS general educational courses (GEC) 9 ECTS current trends in chemical engineering 63 ECTS core courses process product planet engineering engineering engineering 9 ECTS comp. 9 ECTS comp. 9 ECTS comp. 6 ECTS choice 6 ECTS choice 6 ECTS choice 24 ECTS master thesis

6 common branch in mastercurriculum to provide a strong chemical engineering background COMMON BRANCH (63 ECTS) ECTS Design of chemical production units = 9 Transport phenomena: chemical engineering applications 6 Applied Physical Chemistry 6 Control ltechnology in the chemical lindustry 6 Analytical Chemistry part 2 3 Separation processes part 2 3 Hazardous materials and safety 3 Biochemical process engineering 6 Analysis of chemical processes 6 Chemical reaction engineering part 2 3 Materials in the chemical industry 3 Management challenges in the chemical industry 3 Industrial chemical processes 6

7 current trends in chemical engineering unique courses offered in Leuven (research based education) process intensification in the chemical industries (3 ECTS) chemical product design (3 ECTS) microbial process technology (3 ECTS) exergy route towards sustainable chemistry (3 ECTS) students take 3 out of this 4 courses 4 th course can eventually be chosen within the option

8 content options (9 ECTS compulsory, 6 ECTS choice) process engineering g advanced process control in the (bio-)chemical industries powder technology waste water treatment t t technology product engineering applied rheology for product engineering polymer processing design and analysis of polymeric systems planet engineering water technology recycling and energetic valorization of reststreams air pollution and control

9 master thesis + GEC within option: 6 ECTS choice (can be one of the other courses, internships, other potentially interesting courses) master thesis not necessarily connected with option choice (24 ECTS) GEC as before possibility to do Athens exchange language class (e.g. Engels in de bedrijfsomgeving) total quality management innovation management and strategy industry and environment...

10 conclusion chemical engineering in Leuven... a solid engineering education a modern chemical engineering i education an internationally oriented education a strongly research based education strongly linked with the important chemical industry

11 EURHEO prestigeous Erasmus Mundus programme Engineering i Rheology importance of rheology in a scientifically based product formulation (polymers, cosmetics, paints, food applications,...) participating universities (double degree) K.U. Leuven (Belgium) U.C. Louvain-la-Neuve (Belgium) Universidade do Minho (Portugal) Universidad de Huelva (Spain) Università degli studi della Calabria (Italy) Univerza Ljubljana (Slovenia) scholarships hi available, also for EU citizins i

12 EURHEO master programme (120 ECTS)

13 EURHEO year 1: regular curriculum in host university year 2, first semester: common branch modules taught in Universidade do Minho (Portugal) students choose 3 out of 4 common branch modules material a sce science ce (5 ECTS) experimental techniques (5 ECTS) constitutive modelling and computational rheology (5 ECTS) rheology in material science (5 ECTS) year 2, second semester: other university than year 1 master thesis project (30 ECTS) 15 ECTS Advanced Topical Modules (e-learning over internet)

14 nieuw vanaf mogelijkheid tot inschrijven voor de Engelstalige en Nederlandstalige versie van het programma enkel Engelstalige g opleiding zal geïmplementeerd worden als hoorcolleges Nederlandse versie zal op papier blijven bestaan (decretaal vereist) maar zal aangeboden worden voor zij die het willen met andere werkvormen (begeleidingssessies, aangepast cursusmateriaal (ingesproken commentaar bij slides, stukken opgenomen lessen,...)

15 nieuw vanaf we hopen dat jullie allemaal kiezen voor de Engelstalige opleiding meerwaarde van het internationale diploma meerwaarde naar vaardigheden in het Engels verantwoordelijkheid nemen en fier zijn op het anders zijn van de Leuvense chemical engineering opleiding... maar we begrijpen de drempelvrees onze taak om onze beloftes van kwaliteitsvolle ll ondersteuning waar te maken uiteraard nog steeds de mogelijkheid om hulp te krijgen in g g j p jg het Nederlands
