The Master’s in Chemical Engineering at Osaka Metropolitan University (OMU) is provided through the Graduate School of Engineering’s Chemical Engineering field, which is part of the Division of Materials, Chemistry and Biology within the Engineering graduate program. This master’s program builds on the foundations of natural sciences such as chemistry, physics and biology to train students in advanced approaches for designing, analyzing and innovating chemical processes, materials and systems that contribute to sustainable industrial and environmental solutions. Chemical engineering at OMU emphasizes an integrated understanding of process methodologies that create useful, environmentally considerate technologies — including process design, reaction engineering, energy and resource conversion, and materials-oriented systems that address contemporary societal needs. Students undertake graduate-level coursework and research under faculty supervision, culminating in an individual master’s thesis project that develops specialized expertise and research skills applicable to industrial R&D and academia. The program fosters problem-solving, analytical capabilities, and interdisciplinary perspectives to prepare graduates for roles in chemical engineering research, technology development, and process innovation in a wide range of sectors.
NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements. It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
