Tianjin University’s Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) degree programme has
been accredited by IChemE, marking the first time IChemE has accredited
a degree course in China.
Neil Atkinson, IChemE’s director of qualifications and international
development, says that he is “thrilled” that TJU has joined the ranks
of IChemE-accredited universities: “It is a significant milestone for
the institution”, he says.
Atkinson says the accreditation team was very impressed with the standard
of chemical engineering teaching at Tianjin: “IChemE has been working
closely with the university regarding reform of chemical engineering
education.
“The School of Chemical Engineering has demonstrated real leadership in
introducing a new, enhanced curriculum. For example, it will be the first
chemical engineering degree in China to require students to carry out a
major, group-based process design project in their final year.
“Students will also find a greater emphasis on assessment by assignment
and project work, rather than examination,” says Atkinson.
TJU is particularly well-known for its strength in the engineering
disciplines, and national evaluation exercises have consistently ranked
its School of Chemical Engineering as the country’s leading academic
institution in terms of teaching, research and reputation.
A “national model” for higher education, TJU’s School of Chemical
Engineering plays a leading role in the development of chemical
engineering education across China.
TJU President Gong Ke has been a strong supporter of the university’s
wish to win IChemE accreditation, and has played a key role in ensuring
that the recent accreditation visit was a success. |
