Organisation profile
Organisation profile
The Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry performs cutting-edge research ranging from atomic scale molecular design and nanoscale organization of new functional materials to the design of large scale production, process, and equipment concepts. Our researchers collaborate with other departments within the university like Biomedical Technology, Mechanical Engineering and Applied Physics. And also outside the university with academic and commercial parties world wide like R&D representatives from the chemical industry, engineering firms, equipment manufacturers and spin-off companies founded by TU/e staff.
There are three focus areas in which we excel: molecules, materials and processes. Our nine research groups work mostly in one of those areas but some connect two of the areas.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
-
SDG 2 Zero Hunger -
SDG 3 Good Health and Well-being -
SDG 4 Quality Education -
SDG 7 Affordable and Clean Energy -
SDG 8 Decent Work and Economic Growth -
SDG 9 Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure -
SDG 11 Sustainable Cities and Communities -
SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production -
SDG 13 Climate Action -
SDG 14 Life Below Water -
SDG 15 Life on Land
