Process Systems Engineering
What is Process Systems Engineering?
Process Systems Engineering (PSEng) is a broad category of engineering that deals with the process design for the purpose of converting raw goods to usable end products, including energy. Process engineering looks at the entire process from Point A, which is a raw material, to Point Z, which is the desired end product. It does not necessarily deal with acquiring the raw base material, although knowledge of its acquisition is part of the U of R’s systems approach to teaching and research.
Our Program
PSEng is an innovative graduate program in systems engineering. The program prepares students for a career in the process and energy industries.
Graduate with:
- Master of Applied Science (Thesis-based)
-
Master's Certificate (M.Cert) Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage
- Master of Engineering (Project or Co-op)
-
Doctoral (Ph.D.) program
Key research areas include:
The University of Regina has significant research programs in the following Process Systems Engineering areas (however, the PSEng program at the U of R provides students with the tools to solve any type of process engineering problem in any area):
- CO2 capture
- hydrogen production
- biofuels production
- biofuels processing
- fossil fuels processing and refining
- alternative energy production
- corrosion and materials engineering
- raw materials refining and processing
- gasification
- waste treatment
