Competencies
- 01. The ability to apply scientific methods and the principles of engineering and economics in order to raise and resolve complex problems relating to processes, equipment, facilities and services, in which the material experiences changes in its composition, state or energy content, characteristic of the chemical industry and other related sectors such as the pharmaceutical, biotechnological, material, energy, food and environmental sectors.
- 02. Create, plan, calculate and design processes, equipment and industrial and service facilities in the field of chemical engineering and related industrial sectors, in terms of quality, safety, finance, the rational and efficient use of natural resources and conservation of the environment.
- 03. Being able to establish mathematical models and develop these through the appropriate computing, as the scientific and technological foundation for the design of new products, processes, systems and services, and for the optimisation of those already developed.
- 04. Technically and financially direct and manage projects, facilities, plants, businesses and technology centres in the field of chemical engineering and related industrial sectors.
- 05. Having the analytical and summarising skills required for continued advances in products, processes and services on the basis of safety, economic viability, quality and environmental management criteria.
- 06. Performing appropriate research, including the design and development of engineering solutions, in new or little-known environments, using creativity, originality, innovation and technology transfer.
- 07. Having the ability to learn self-sufficiently in order to maintain and improve the characteristic skills of a chemical engineer which allow for constant development of the profession.
- 08. Leading and defining multidisciplinary teams able to tackle technical changes and management needs in national and international contexts.
- 09. Acquiring advanced knowledge and demonstrating, in a context of scientific and technological or highly specialised research, a detailed and well-grounded understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of the working methodology in the field of study with a depth of knowledge that goes as far as cutting-edge developments.
- 10. Adapting to changes, being able to apply new and advanced technologies as well as other relevant advances, with initiative and an entrepreneurial spirit.
- 11. Developing enough self-sufficiency in order to take part in research projects and scientific or technological collaborations within their field, in interdisciplinary contexts and, where relevant, with a high component of knowledge transfer, while assuming responsibility for their own professional development.
- 12. Communicating and debating proposals and conclusions in multilingual forums, specialised and non-specialised, in a clear manner without ambiguities.
- 13. Integrating knowledge and dealing with the complexity of expressing opinions and making decisions based on limited or incomplete information, which includes reflections on the social and ethical responsibilities of the professional activity.
- 14. Knowing how to apply and integrate scientific knowledge, understanding and grounds; and being able to solve problems in new and imprecisely defined environments, including multidisciplinary contexts with both researchers and highly specialised professionals.
- 15. Being able to perform in complex situations by developing new and innovative working methodologies adapted to the specific scientific/research, technological or professional environment, generally multidisciplinary, where their professional activity is performed.
- 16. Having the ability to compile and interpret data and to understand how to evaluate and choose the appropriate scientific theory and the precise methodology in their field of study in order to form judgements based on incomplete or limited information including, when necessary, a reflection on social or ethical responsibility in the area of their field of study.
- 17. Knowing how to communicate in a clear manner without ambiguities, to a specialised or non-specialised audience, the results of the scientific and technological research or the most advanced innovation environment, as well as the most relevant foundations upon which they are based.
