In order to address the problem of acute shortage of chemical engineers in the country and to impart quality instructions in a research oriented atmosphere with excellent opportunities for personal and professional growth, the Department of Chemical Engineering at Quaid-e-Awam University of Engineering Science &Technology, Nawabshah, was established in 2013.

The department has highly qualified and experienced faculty members to teach fundamental courses in friendly and congenial environment. Students will have access to state-of-the-art laboratories to learn and apply fundamental chemical engineering principles. The department laboratories will impart the practical knowledge in the field and will carry out the most recent research and development in the area of chemical engineering. Presently, department offers four year undergraduate program in Chemical Engineering.

The focus of undergraduate program is to teach students the basic skills of problem solving, critical analysis, participating in team work and resourcefulness particularly in areas of design, manufacturing, operations, management and maintenance of an industrial plant and a laboratory involving chemical and biochemical processes. It will also deal with bio-chemical, environmental and materials problems. In developing the program it has been ensured that our students are at par with students from other world class universities.
