Institute of Process Engineering (IPE) is one of the CAS institutes with Chemical Engineering and Technology as the major discipline. It is the leading institute for the discipline construction of Chemical Engineering and Technology in UCAS. Over the past 60 years, the scope of research has gradually expanded to the fields of energy chemical engineering, biochemical engineering, material chemical engineering, resources/environment engineering, etc., and the discipline direction has developed from "chemical metallurgy" to "process engineering". You may know more about IPE at the English official website (http://english.ipe.cas.cn/).

The following is brief information about admission application.

You’re also welcome to join our Online Admission Briefing for International Students to know more about IPE. We invited professors to introduce their research groups and current students to share experiences.
