Module choices in Chemical Engineering
Please follow the guidance on this page. If you apply to study modules that are not permitted by your School/Department, your learning agreement may be returned to you. If you have any questions, please contact the Exchange Co-ordinator. Detailed information about each module is shown in the Module Specification pages.
Number of credits
The recommended number of credits per semester is 30 ECTS credits (60 Loughborough credits).
You are advised not to exceed this recommendation.
Module options
The Chemical Engineering modules (CG codes) available to you are listed below.
The Exchange Co-ordinator will discuss the suitability of your module choices with you in more detail if required and will be happy to answer any questions you have.
Timetable clashes
Please be aware that if you choose modules from across a range of Parts, there is an increased chance that timetable clashes will occur, and you will not be able to take all the modules requested in your initial learning agreement.
Modules marked with an asterisk ✱ also have an increased chance of timetable clashes.
Research projects
If you wish to undertake a research project during your time at Loughborough, you may register for 24CGD064 Research Project (incoming exchange).

Can I choose modules from other Schools/Departments?
It is recommended that you choose modules from within Chemical Engineering (CG module codes).
Module(s) offered by another School/Department may be available but this must be agreed by the member of staff responsible for the specific module, and be approved and signed off by the respective Exchange Co-ordinator before you submit your final learning agreement to Chemical Engineering.
