Process engineering is an independent engineering science. It deals with the transformation of materials through mechanical, chemical or thermal processes. Process engineering is the discipline that translates the findings of natural scientists, in this case of chemists at JKU, into realizable technical concepts. In process engineering, for example, a chemical experiment becomes a process that can be applied in industry and production.

Curious? about process engineering?  Find here an insight of the "Young Process Engineers", opens a file - sorry, at the moment only in German available.
Interested? - then decide to do your Bachelor or Master in process engineering. Just contact Univ.-Prof. Dr. Hlawitschka!

At JKU, the teaching of process engineering includes all basic methods of material conversion in the bachelor program, both theoretical and practical.

In the master's degree program, students specialize in process engineering and process technology, and are taught how to design plants and carry out chemical apparatus engineering for process plants.

By the way, the short name for our institute is IVT!
