Course Overview: Following the introduction of the chemical engineering degree in 1952, graduates from the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering have been rapidly accepted into industry, both in Australia and worldwide. Graduate Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering starting salaries are higher then any other engineering discipline.

Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering is concerned with developing and analysing process systems, which are strongly dependant upon chemistry and involve physical changes, Out graduates find employment in the biochemical industry, the food industry, as well as in the traditional chemical industry. Chemical and Biomolecular Engineers are well suited for environment-related engineering positions given their strong background in process systems and in chemical biological processes in particular.
