Rules: Students enrolling for the first time in 2018 are required to do MAT1510. Students who registered prior to 2018 are not required to do this module. Students should register for MAT1581 in the 2nd semester, once they have done the first part of MAT1510. The following practical module must be done at Unisa's Muckleneuk Campus in Pretoria: CHE1PRA, PCH2PRA. The Chemical Engineering practical courses must be done at Unisa Florida Laboratories. Both the theoretical and the practical component of the subject must be passed before credit for the subject can be obtained. The practical component must be done simultaneously or after the theoretical component. Modules can be completed concurrently or in different years. Access to a personal computer is compulsory for the Practical. All study materials and examination papers (except Mathematics III) are available only in English. Students who have done CEM2601 do not need to do CHF1501 and CHF2601. Students who have done CEM311A do not need to do TRP2601 and students who have done CEM321B do not need to do CES2601. |

| Purpose statement: To apply integrated technical knowledge/skills and advanced analysis and problem solving to a particular specialised research area in Chemical Engineering. |
|
| This qualification will be presented using both online and distance learning modes. | |
| Qualification offered until 2023, and ONLY for students previously registered for this qualification. | |
Please note: Should you wish to start a new qualification, please apply online for the alternative qualification during the prescribed application period.
Each Unisa qualification is structured in such a way that you need to pass a certain number of NQF level credits within a certain amount of time in order to graduate.
Pre-requisite: If Module A is a pre-requisite for Module B, you must pass Module A before you may register for Module B.
You may not register for more than the allowed maximum number of credits / modules per academic year and / or semester: 60 credits per semester or 120 credits per academic year.
The maximum number of credits do not include supplementary and / or aegrotat examinations from a previous semester. Modules taken for non-degree / non-diploma purposes also count towards the maximum number of credits allowed.
You must take your available time into consideration when choosing your modules, as this will impact your academic performance. You need approximately

Students enrolling for the first time in 2018 are required to do MAT1510 and CHF1501. Students who
registered prior to 2018 are not required to do MAT1510. Students are recommended to register for
MAT1581 in the 2nd semester, once they have done the first part of MAT1510 and CHF1501 and CHF2601
replace CEM2601. Students who have done CEM2601 or CEM211F do not need to do CHF1501 and CHF2601.

The following practical modules must be done at Unisa's Muckleneuk Campus in Pretoria: PCH2PRA.
The practical component of this study unit is compulsory. Registration for the practical component
is done at Unisa. The Chemical Engineering practical courses must be done at Unisa Florida
laboratories, and Durban University of Technology or Cape Peninsula University of Technology as
these institutions offer the same courses. If the student decides to do the practical component at
DUT or CPUT, the student must register for the module at Unisa and indicate in Assignment 1, where
s/he wishes to do the practical module. Unisa will then make the necessary arrangements, and the
practical dates will be communicated to the student. Both the theoretical and the practical
component of the subject must be passed before credit for the subject can be obtained. The practical
component must be done simultaneously or after the theoretical component. Modules can be completed
concurrently or in different years. Access to a personal computer is compulsory for the practical.
All study materials and examination papers are available only in English. Work integrated learning
is a compulsory component towards the completion of this qualification.
