Food & Biochemical Engineering
Biochemical engineering comprises of processes that deal with biological organisms. It is a very important sub field of Chemical engineering. Since food is vital to life, and producing food with optimum productivity with the lowest cost is necessary due to limited resources, food processing and manufacturing is one of the most important fields of chemical engineering. Biochemical engineering is a vast field within chemical engineering.
Environmental Engineering
The environmental effects of development as well as aspects such as proper waste disposal are becoming more and more significant in the modern world. As process engineers, this aspect is quite important in the design and operation of production plants. With the increasing concern over sustainable engineering solutions to issues such as waste disposal and even hazardous material disposal, the field of environmental engineering is becoming more and more significant in the modern day. Research projects on environmental engineering aspects are conducted at the department which consists of a separate environmental engineering laboratory to aid this research.
