Record numbers of students apply for UK chemical engineering courses!

Great news for the UK and Europe's chemical industry. According to the country's Institute of Chemical Engineers, 10,068 applications have been received for university places, 18% up on 2008.

It seems like the UK has been something of a success story in recent years. Between 2001 and 2008 the number of chemical engineering students has doubled, bucking earlier downward trends.

During our campaign we'll aim to highlight the good practice which has given these results.

According to the press release, IChemE Chief Executive, David Brown welcomed a record number of applications to study chemical engineering at UK universities and urged Government not to cap student places.

Please reply to this post if you are a student or have any experience of UK chemical engineering training.
