WHAT
IS A
PDENG?
A PDEng (Professional Doctorate in Engineering) is an innovative degree, that qualifies Post-Master Degree students into technological designers, allowing them to achieve real, tangible groundbreaking results in companies, in the field of biochemical product and process design.
Technological designers of the TU Delft PDEng programmes nowadays have the expertise that most companies search for, when facing a technological problem that needs solving or a challenging design issue that needs unravelling.

All two-year TU Delft programmes gives MSc graduates the training and skills needed to develop complex new products, processes and equipment, “fit for purpose” and “first of its kind”. TU Delft offers three full time programmes, such as Bioprocess Engineering, Process and Equipment Design and Chemical Product Design.

AND THEIR PROJECTS
AND THEIR PROJECTS
María J. Jiménez Toro
MSc. in Chemical Engineering by University of Granada (Spain). After performing her Master Thesis at Aston University (Birmingham, UK) in 2016, she aspired to excel her knowledge in process development and design. During her first PDEng year she performed her Group Design Project about LNG at Shell. She is currently starting her Individual Project about dewatering and drying of algaes at Corbion, where she aims to keep improving her approach in problem solving and sustainability.
Diogo M. B. Sebastião
Msc. in Biological Engineering by Instituto Superior Técnico (IST). After completing his master, he worked as a research assistant at the Portuguese National Laboratory for Energy and Geology (LNEG). There he performed Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) analyses of novel biofuels routes. He decided to join the PDEng program because he wanted to develop his process design skills closely with industry. During his PDEng group and individual design projects, he worked at Tata Steel R&D to investigate advantages and implications of applying bioprocess in the steel making process.
