The School of CBE integrates the expertise and capabilities of the Chemical Engineering and Biomedical Engineering departments. The resulting mix of skills creates new horizons for engineering and enables the realisation of transformative new ideas into practical innovations.
This ranges from the development of bionic prosthetic implants to remediation of Antarctic landscapes. The sweep of technological applications is vast and we are focused on end-use inspired research.
We encompass mining, energy, material science, the environment, medical devices, medical imaging, drug delivery and food production. Our goal is to facilitate knowledge acquisition, research excellence, and its translation into technological, societal, industrial and medical innovation.
