Renewable Energy, Materials and Processing
Does a career in renewable energy appeal to you? Would you like to apply chemical engineering to the improvement of rapidly expanding green technologies such as biomass digester and biogas upgrading systems? Then the minor Renewable Energy, Materials and Processing is the right choice for you! This programme is also available as an exchange semester.
The Renewable Energy, Materials and Processing programme is open to students from Hanze UAS and students from abroad.
The programme covers various aspects of renewable energy. The main focus is on biogas production, and together with your fellow students you will work on projects in this field. In the previous years, students worked on, for example, evaluating and optimising a Swill (restaurant waste) digester or on a biogas upgrading process based on a gas absorption in pressurised water. These projects are set up in cooperation with leading institutes and companies, which will give you a good insight into the work field. The project groups will be of mixed internationalities and backgrounds, mimicing the situation of a Engineering company working for a client.
During two theoretical modules focussed on Chemical Engineering you will learn competencies like development and consultancy that are directly applicable to your project. An overview of the different modules can be found below.

This minor programme is available for students from the Hanze University of Applied sciences, students from other universities or universities of applied sciences in the Netherlands and exchange students. Below you find more information about each procedure.
This minor is available for everyone from the Chemical Engineering programme who has aquired 60 EC from the propaedeutic phase, and passed the practical courses from themes 1 to 8. You can sign up via Osiris, up to 4 weeks before the start of the minor.
To enter this exchange minor, you must have completed two or three years of a bachelor's programme in the field of Chemical Engineering or Bioprocess Technology. We also require a CEFR level of B2 or higher. You can apply for this exchange semester via our International Office, more information can be found on the Exchange Application page (see contact tab for a direct link).
Students Chemical Engineering from another university or university of applied sciences can apply for this minor via the website Kies op Maat: www.kiesopmaat.nl.
