  3. Chemical Engineering: Trent/Swansea Dual Degree

Chemical Engineering: Trent/Swansea Dual Degree

Through this unique international dual degree program, you’ll earn a B.Sc. in Chemistry from Trent and a B.Eng. in Chemical Engineering from Swansea University in Wales – graduating with both degrees in just four years.

Spend the first two years practising modern experimental and theoretical chemistry in Trent’s world-class labs and instrumentation facilities, including organic, analytical, and spectroscopy labs.

In your third year, travel across the ocean to Swansea’s seaside campus to complete a Chemical Engineering degree at one of the top 10 engineering schools in the United Kingdom.

While studying at Swansea, you will automatically receive a £3,000 tuition fee bursary for each year of study. That’s £6,000 (approx. $10,700 CAD) to support your education abroad!

This program is accredited by the Canadian Society for Chemistry and includes numerous hands-on training, work experience, and graduate opportunities in Canada and the UK.
