Chemical engineering is the branch of engineering that deals with the application of physical science with mathematics, to the process of converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms.. It largely involves the design and maintenance of chemical processes for large-scale manufacture. Chemical engineers are now engaged in the development and production of a diverse range of products like fabrics, adhesives, biocompatible materials for implants, prosthetics, gels etc as well as in commodity and specialty chemicals. Today, the field of chemical engineering is a diverse one, covering areas from biotechnology and nanotechnology to mineral processing. The course offered covers mass-, heat- and momentum- transfer operations, thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, transport phenomena, simulation and process control, environmental engineering, energy engineering
