Introduction

The Department of Chemical Engineering was established in 1994 as the Department of Chemical Engineering. Chemical Engineering is a study that understands and interprets natural phenomenon based on chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics, and applies them to related industries, thereby contributing to the development of society. Related industries are expanding to traditional refineries, petrochemicals, and fine chemicals, in addition to advanced future industries such as bio and pharmaceutical industries, new materials, semiconductors, displays, environment, and clean energy.

The role of chemical engineering experts will grow in the fourth industrial society. They will lead the response to climate change, reduction of fine dust, preparation for the hydrogen society, development of new materials, and biotechnology by cultivating an ability to solve the problems facing human society.
