Biochemical and Food Technologies specialisation

Students in the Chemical and Biomolecular stream must complete 24 credit points to achieve this specialisation.

 

Unit of study Credit points A: Assumed knowledge P: Prerequisites
C: Corequisites N: Prohibition
Students complete 24 credit points from the following:
CHNG3808
Engineering Macromolecules and Nanocomposites
6 A CHNG2801 and 12 cp of CHEM1XXX
CHNG5602

6

A Knowledge of fluid mechanics and mathematics at a level typical of an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering. Assumed knowledge is equivalent to CHNG2801 (or AMME2261 or AMME2200 or CIVL2611 or CIVL3612 or CIVL9612) AND CHNG2802 (or AMME2000 or MATH2021 or MATH2061 or MATH2921). This unit is for postgraduate students and also is offered as an elective for fourth year undergraduate students
This unit of study is for Masters students and can be selected as an elective by 4th year students.
CHNG5607
Advanced Biochemical Engineering

A CHNG2802 AND CHNG2806 AND CHNG3803 AND CHNG3804. Students who have not completed the units listed as assumed knowledge should consult the coordinator before enrolling in the unit.
FOOD3001
Food Processing and Value Adding
6 A 6cp of (BIOL1XXX or MBLG1XXX) and 6cp of CHEM1XXX
P Completion of 72 credit points of units of study
N AGEN3004
This unit needs to be available as a non-award course so that students seeking admission to the MND have an option to fulfil the 6 cp Food Science prerequisite, if their previous study does not fulfil this requirement already.
Units taken for the specialisation will also count toward requirements of the Chemical and Biomolecular stream.
