Relevant information about writing a master's thesis at the Department of Chemical Engineering:

Hazardous activity identification and risk assessment

Before starting work on your thesis you must also do a hazardous activity identification (this applies also for work that is purely theoretical) and a risk assessment of all the activities identified in the hazardous activity identification process (not necessary for theoretical work).

Identification of hazardous activity / risk assessment is done in cooperation with your supervisor(s). Questions on how to perform the risk assessment can be directed to the HSE-coordinator at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Karin Wiggen Godø.

All risk assessments at IKP must be registered in NTNU's digital risk assessment system. Log in with your NTNU profile and fill in. This has to be done no matter if you are going to work in the lab or not!

Useful information concerning risk assessment:

Student Exhange

If you want to study abroad as part of your studies at the Department of Chemical Engineering, you can find information about studying abroad here.

You must take the full study load (30 ECTS per semester), as well as choose subjects that in content and scope correspond to the compulsory courses you miss while you are abroad. If you are wondering how many credits / units you must have at the various universities to get the full study load - contact Anacleta Venturin Andersen who is the study supervisor on the study programs MSCHEMENG / MSCHEMBI.
