Process Systems Engineering (PSE) is the scientific discipline of integrating scales and components describing the behavior of a physicochemical system, via mathematical modeling, data analytics, process design, integration, optimization, intensification, and control. The department has a large cluster of PSE faculty, experts and researchers making theoretical, computational and algorithmic advances in computer-aided systematic decision-making. PSE provides the ‘glue’ within chemical engineering science, and offers a scientific basis and computational tools towards addressing contemporary and future challenges in energy, environment, advanced chemical manufacturing, safety, circular economy, and sustainability.
