Chemical Engineering

[Shahun]

Hi Guys,

 

I've recently received my application acceptance to go and study Chemical Engineering at a local university for next year. www.up.ac.za (Its the BEng - Chemical Engineering course)

 

I finished school last year and will be starting studies next year (I took a year off to really figure out what I want to study because I have many interests). Currently I'm working at a bank doing some IT support and logistics among other things, but I seem to find myself constantly wondering about and reading up on something scientifical whenever I have free time.

 

My question is whether there are any free books or sources of information that I can start reading through that will help me next year with the course? (Its a 4-year degree) I am willing to order a book etc. but would preffer free content as the study fees and books are already costing a small fortune.

 

Thanks for your effort in advance,

 

Shaun

Chemical Engineering is the key to many issues affecting our quality of life. Industry is increasingly focused on high value chemicals and product which deliver the right molecule to the right at the right time. To carry out these activities the chemical engineer requires a complete and quantitative understanding of both the engineering and scientific principles underlying these technological processes.
