The English-language Masters Program in Chemical Engineering and in Materials Science and Engineering
I. Chemical Engineering
BUCT was authorized to confer masters and Ph. D. degrees in Chemical Engineering in 1981 and 1984, respectively, and Ph. D. degrees in Chemical Engineering and Technology, one of our first-class disciplines, in 2000. In 2001, our Chemical Engineering program was recognized as a State Key Subject. In 2005, the BUCT Postdoctoral Research Station in Chemical Engineering and Technology was awarded the title of National Excellent Postdoctoral Research Station. Our Chemical Engineering and Technology program was ranked in the top five of those provided by China’s universities in a nationwide evaluation program of core subjects carried out by the Evaluation Center of the Ministry of Education. In 2007, this subject became one of the first selected as a National Core Subject.
Major Research Directions
1. Clean energy and energy conservation technologies
2. Green technologies in the chemical industry
3. Nanomaterials and technologies
4. Nanodrug technologies
5. Technologies for GHG (greenhouse gas) emission reduction and resource recovery)
6. Intensification technologies for supergravity processes
7. Fluid mixing and reactor engineering
8. Computational chemical and molecular design of materials
9. Complex systems and materials in the chemical industry
10. Green chemistry and clean production techniques
11. Chemical conversion and pollution control of coal resources
12. Petrochemical technologies and processes
13. Chemical engineering in the utilization of renewable resources
14. Modern mass transfer theory and new separation technologies
II. Materials Science and Engineering (Macromolecules)
BUCT was authorized to confer masters and Ph. D. degrees in this subject in 1982 and 1986, respectively. In 1986, Materials Science and Engineering (Macromolecules) was listed as a State Key Subject by the Chinese State Commission of Education (the predecessor of the Ministry of Education). In 1990, a Postdoctoral Research Station in the subject was set up at BUCT. The subject has since become one of the key disciplines ensuring BUCT’s qualification as one of the universities in the “211” Project. The discipline has an academic staff of 51 professors and 45 associate professors. Professor Yang Wantai, one of China’s Cheung Kong Scholars is its primary academic leader. A comprehensive suite of equipment for studying the composition, structure, morphology, and performance of polymers is available. Research is mainly directed towards the study of the synthesis, structure, and performance of organic macromolecules; polymer design from the atomic, molecular, supra-molecular, and submicroscopic phase states; and production of polymers with tailored molecular structure through “large-molecule engineering” with the help of physical and chemical modification approaches in order to obtain materials with high performance or special functions. The group is China’s leader in controlled/living polymerization and the physical chemistry of macromolecular alloys. In this “macromolecular century”, graduate students will enjoy our study environment, thanks to research and teaching systems that emphasize not only basic theories of macromolecular science but also the development of new materials.
Major Research Directions:
1. Controlled/living polymerization
2. Heterogeneous polymerization
3. Polymer surfaces and interfaces
4. Polymer structure and properties
5. Condensed matter physics of polymers
6. Synthesis and preparation of polymeric materials
7. Functional polymer materials
8. Advanced elastomeric materials science and engineering
9. Material processing engineering
