Energy and Bioprocess Engineering Zewail City of Science and Technology

Overview

These techniques include solar cells, bioprocess and biomass, Biogas, etc. The program begins in years one and two providing a strong foundation in fundamental sciences, as do all of the programs at University of Science and Technology. 

In addition, the Energy and Bioprocess Engineering Program from Zewail City of Science and Technology exposes the student to multidisciplinary courses that broaden his/her background in microbiology and material science. Taken together, these courses will provide a strong theoretical background enabling the student to devise a range of innovative approaches to the problem of efficient and clean sources of energy. Most of the courses are designed to have an experimental (laboratory) component. 

Graduation projects are selected from practical cases that can be developed using the advanced facilities available at the research centers. Accordingly, all graduates are qualified in a way that will enable them to develop novel techniques for generating energy, and hence, open the horizon for new industries.

Program Educational Objectives 

The Energy and Bioprocess Engineering program aims at providing its graduates with:

• Prepare graduates who are skilled energy and bioprocess engineers who serve as professional role models for the next generations.

• Prepare graduates who take part in the development of the country’s energy resources and bioprocess systems and are able to work abroad.

• Prepare graduates who develop themselves professionally or pursue their graduate studies.

• Prepare graduates who apply principles of mathematics, chemistry, and energy and bioprocess engineering to the design and safe-operation of economically feasible performing bioprocess systems.
