Your Job as a Chemical and Environmental EngineerA CEEV graduate is not just a Chemical Engineer, not just an
Environmental Engineer but BOTH. You may be required to:
■ Carry out improvement of processes and manufacturing
facilities in order to minimize waste generation or comply with
environ-mental legislation on emission
■ Design and build environmental processes and pollution
treatment equipment and plants
■ Operate and manage environmental treatment plants
■ Conduct environmental research
■ Make envi ronmenta l impact assessments on a new
production plant
and much more.
Job OpportunitiesIn addition to the jobs that are open to all Chemical Engineers,
CEEV Engineers can find jobs in a wide range of areas both locally
and abroad. With China's rapid growth and the Chinese
Government's recognition of the need to protect the environment,
you could also find yourselves sought after by many international
companies that are working on big projects in China or overseas.
Many of our graduates work at:
■ Environmental Protection Department, Hong Kong
■ Government Public Works departments
■ Environmental engineering and consulting firms
■ Utility and construction companies
■ Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies
■ Semiconductor and electroplating companies
■ Oil and petrochemical plants
■ Process engineering companies
■ Plastic manufacturing plants
■ Food and beverages companies
■ Equipment sales and R&D companies
Life as a Chemical and Environmental Engineering StudentAs a Chemical and Environmental Engineering student, you will
enjoy a rich and colorful campus life among classmates and
friends. The HKUST is well known for it panoramic scenery and
beautiful landscaping. Situated at Clear Water Bay, the campus
enjoys a clean and quiet environment but
within 20 minutes commuting distance from the nearby MTR stations.
Living on campus encourages camaraderie and builds life-long
friendship among students. It also gives you an opportunity to
experience new things. Life in the Halls is fun-filled. Hall Parties, Flea
Markets, Gourmet Festivals, Movie Nights and Sport Meets are just
some of the regular Hall activities.
A good percentage of CEEV students are members of student societies.
Besides Chemical Engineering Student Society, our students are active
members of Drama, Judo, Fencing and Dance clubs. If you love
Chinese opera or comic books, why not start your own clubs.
Our students understand that communication and social skills are as
important as technical knowledge. You will have a chance to learn
spoken and technical English as well as polish your report / letter
writing skills. You can also learn a new language. Many of our students
study Mandarin and can practice with visiting students from China,
Taiwan and Singapore.
Do you want to go abroad? There are over 100 International Patrner
Institutions in China, USA/Canada, Australia, Europe, Asia and South
East Asia http://gso.ust.hk/partner.html
About ten percent of our students participate in exchange student
program. In return, we host students from China, Europe and North
America. This gives you an opportunity to learn a new culture, meet
new friends and gain new exciting experience.
All these are part of your CEEV experiences. Hope to see you this Fall !!
CEEV Graduates Working in Hong KongEddie Lee
I am working as an Environmental Protection
Officer in the Environmental Assessment Division
of the Environmental Protection Department. My
duty is to assist the authorities to review hazard
assessment reports for infrastructure and
development projects, to scrutinize whether the
assessment methodologies adopted by these
reports are scientifically sound, and to assess whether the risk level
arising from these developments conforms to Hong Kong risk
guidelines. In my day-to-day work, I often make use of process safety
knowledge taught in the chemical engineering curriculum, such as
hazard and operability study and dispersion models.
Harry Lee
I am working in Ove Arup & Partners
Hong Kong Ltd as a senior engineer in
the water team and I have been in the
field of environmental and engineering
consultancy since 2001 upon study
completion. Chemical engineering principles in heat/mass balances,
unit operations, reaction and separation processes etc are essential for
me to deliver various EIA and water/waste engineering projects
requiring process engineering
expertise. I am privileged to work on the pilot desalination plant
study and demonstration scheme on reclaimed water uses in
Hong Kong, as well as some other overseas desalination plants in
relieving water shortages. My academic and practical experience
has led to qualifications in professional institutions in IChemE and
HKIE, which are vital in further developing my career.

You and Chemical and Environmental Engineering (CEEV)Hardly a week goes by without newspaper headlines and special reports on television and radio warning us about:
■ global warming
■ holes in the ozone layer
■ dumping of toxic waste
■ algal bloom and red tide
■ emergence of another infectious disease
and many important environmental issues
Pollution is associated with human activities and is generated when we make products (everything from toys to computers). The CEEV program provides you with a knowledge base that enables you to:
■ design and develop measures for pollution prevention
■ minimize, monitor and control waste generation during manufacturing
■ eliminate or reduce harmful emissions and discharges
■ recycle solid wastes to ease the demand on limited landfill space
and much more.
Thinking of finding out more about the environmental problems we are facing, the consequences of continuing environmental decline? Interested in making a contribution to finding solutions to some of these problems? Looking for challenges in developing innovative pollution control technologies? Then the CEEV program is for you. It is the job of a Chemical and Environmental Engineer to understand, improve and protect our environment.
Your study will focus on the basic engineering principles involved with pollution prevention and control; the design of green products that do not impose a substantial burden on the environ-ment; the development of processes that can remove the hazardous and toxic materials emanating from manufacturing; and the evaluation of the impact of a production facility on the environment.

Harry Lee
I am working in Ove Arup & Partners Hong Kong Ltd as a senior engineer in the water team and I have been in the field of environmental and engineering consultancy since 2001 upon study completion. Chemical engineering principles in heat/mass balances, unit operations, reaction and separation processes etc are essential for me in delivering various EIA and water/waste engineering projects requiring process engineering expertise. I am privileged to work on the pilot desalination plant study and demonstration scheme on reclaimed water uses in Hong Kong, as well as some other overseas desalination plants in relieving water shortages. My academic and practical experience have led to qualifications in professional institutions in IChemE and HKIE, which are vital in further developing my career.
Harry was awarded the Young Engineer of the Year Award by HKIE – http://www.hkie.org.hk/eng/html/events&activities/pa_pastevent/yea-2011.asp
You and Chemical and Environmental Engineering (CEEV)Hardly a week goes by without newspaper headlines and special
reports in the media warning us about:
■ Global warming
■ Holes in the ozone layer
■ Dumping of toxic waste
■ Algal bloom and red tide
■ Emergence of another infectious disease
and many important environmental issues
Pollution is associated with human activities and is generated when
we manufacture products (everything from toys to computers).
The CEEV program provides you with a knowledge base that
enables you to:
■ Design and develop measures for pollution prevention
■ Minimize, monitor and control waste generation during
manufacturing
■ Eliminate or reduce harmful emissions and discharges
■ Recycle solid wastes to ease the demand on limited landfill space
and much more.
Thinking of finding out more about the environmental problems
we are facing, the consequences of continuing environmental
decline? Interested in making a contribution to finding solutions
to some of these problems? Looking for challenges to develop
innovative pollution control technologies? Then the CEEV
program is for you. Your study will focus on the basic engineering
principles. It is the job of a Chemical and Environmental Engineer
to understand, improve and protect our environment.
