About the course

Build your appreciation of how catalysis underpins a huge range of modern chemical transformations on this course.

With around 90% of all chemical products produced on a commercial scale involve catalysis, you'll explore how this 'green technology' limits waste and improves selectivity.

Imperial is internationally recognised as a leading centre for catalysis research, with over 30 members of the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering departments active in the area.

You'll benefit from this expertise to receive a coherent overview of homogenous, heterogeneous (solid- liquid, solid-gas interface) and (reaction) engineering disciplines.

"You’re given a lot of freedom to explore what interests you on a Master’s course at Imperial. Fundamentally, the modules are designed to allow you to be curious and to learn around subjects, helping you to build a comprehensive picture of what you could explore and learn more about.

One of the first feelings I had during induction week at Imperial was that of belonging. I had a strange feeling like I had already met everyone in some past life. My peers were approachable and super interesting to talk to – we often discuss philosophy, politics and maths over lunch together!

My lecturers are also easy to talk to and are always available during office hours to have a chat about topics covered in the course. Most importantly, I feel respected by my colleagues and other staff which has really helped me open up and share my ideas."

"I chose Imperial for its global reputation for excellence in science and innovation, as well as its strong links with industry and policy. The MSc Environmental Technology course stood out because of its interdisciplinary approach and the opportunity it would give me to specialise while gaining a broad understanding of environmental challenges. The course would also help me build on my knowledge of environmental, social and governance compliance that I gained from working at Mukti Mandiri Lestari, a leading company in Indonesia’s circular economy. The course’s flexibility, strong alumni network and industry connections made Imperial the clear choice for me. Attending the course Open Day helped me decide between specialisations, and the Admissions team were incredibly supportive throughout the whole application process.

If you're considering this course, be ready to embrace an interdisciplinary mindset. The course blends science, policy and business to tackle environmental challenges which is perfect for me as I was looking to complement my background in architecture and sustainability with a more technical and systems-level understanding of environmental issues."
