    I'm a member for quite a few months, avidly following discussions. Working for Pharma Industry in Technical function in Canada. Recently got admission in the program@ Strathclyde.Just wondering if someone can share thoughts about this program. I got an offer and have to decide in couple of weeks.

    Thanks,

    Avid :confused:

    All I know is that Stuart Pugh, a well known leader and researcher in the mechanical design industry, was a professor there. My impression is that it is a solid, reputable university in Scotland, but, as I said, it is just an opinion. The specific course you mentioned is accredited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers, which is an excellent sign. This could be a great option for some people since there aren´t many DL engineering programs out there, but apparently they work only with companies and not with individuals. I don´t know which other options you are comtemplating, but this is a very good one. Good luck with your decision!

    Thanks much JLV for your reply. I did consider Kansas State Master in Chem. Eng, which is an accredited program. But my problem is that I have lot of Chem eng courses during my bachelors but have degree in Applied Chemistry. In UK chem eng departments also include Applied Chemistry but in North America not many people aware of Applied Chemistry. And to a have engineering license you have to have bachelors in engineering rather that masters.

    Are you doing this as a BS or an MS?

    Is it by DL?

    Thanks,

    I'm admitted in M.Eng. It is a DL program with some component of tutorial at campus which is recommended but not mandatory.
