Master of Professional Engineering in Chemical engineering (Bioprocessing and Food Engineering)

Monash University

Scale up biochemical breakthroughs for industrial production as you collaborate with physicists, chemists and biologists to solve complex problems. Equip yourself with advanced knowledge of thermodynamics, reaction engineering, fluid dynamics, separation processes, enzymes and advanced biotechnology. With chemical engineering, you might purify contaminated water using state-of-the-art nanomembranes. Support the circular economy to build a zero-waste future. Or engineer full-flavour foods and beverages from plant-based ingredients. Want to delve even deeper into bioprocesses with biological engineering You might refine the next gen of mRNA vaccines, develop new biologic drugs to treat rare diseases or produce sustainable fibres from renewable sources. You could join innovative biotech businesses or multinational pharmaceutical firms. Want to pursue a breakthrough of your own Monash will provide you with the support and guidance to turn your spark into a start-up.Careers in Chemical and Biological engineeringChemical and biological engineers are highly sought after in areas like nanotechnology, renewable energy, food production and biotechnology. While local demand remains strong, Australia seeks to strengthen its sovereign capabilities to produce biochemicals. You might enter industry to:Develop cleaner biofuels to protect the environment, Improve water purification using nanomembranes, Advance hydrogen storage for vehiclesSave lives through tissue engineering, Make smart drug delivery even smarterProcess wastes to harness energy, recover high-value metals, make fuels and chemicals, Work with consulting firms to advise biochemical manufacturersDrive climate action and inform policy in the public sector, Support the renewable energy transition through next-gen productsCraft new beer flavours and develop plant-based food alternatives
