ABOUT THE
Program
The doctoral program of Chemical Engineering of the UIS, started activities in 1992, being the first in Colombia. Since then, the Doctorate in Chemical Engineering has stood out as a leader in the generation of knowledge, through research in the areas: mining, energy, biofuels, materials and agro-industrial.
The program awards the title of Doctor of Chemical Engineering. The duration of the program is eight (8) semesters, and six (6) semesters, if the master’s degree has already been completed. The modality is face-to-face with semi-annual admission periodicity. The academic curriculum of the program has been designed in such a way that it gives a solid theoretical foundation in the subjects considered the basis of Chemical Engineering: Thermodynamics, Transport Phenomena, Mathematics. Also, in the training of researchers, through the approach, and development of a doctoral thesis on a relevant problem, in Chemical Engineering.
