The Chair of Solids Process Engineering was founded in 2008 and emerged from the Junior Professorship of Particle Technology and Particle Design. We conduct research in the field of high-pressure process engineering on more than 500 m2 of laboratory space.
The courses offered by the chair include lectures on topics ranging from mechanical process engineering, apparatus engineering and computer applications in process development to the fundamentals of rheology. In addition to teaching basic skills in the subjects mentioned, it is important to us that students learn a reflective approach to the relevant basic operations from accompanying exercises, specialist laboratories and virtual laboratories and develop an enthusiasm for the creative possibilities of process engineering. The focus of our training is always on optimal preparation for an industrial or scientific career.
By participating in major projects to improve engineering education and exchanging ideas with other disciplines, e.g. from the field of university didactics, we create the basis for the continuous further development of our courses and teaching formats.
