Process design is only part of the study of process engineering as students learn decomposition, chemical reactions and energy recovery in classes formulated to introduce design and structure. The course may also introduce project development, raw material properties and working with high pressures.

A diploma is awarded to a student for the successful completion of a course of study. Diplomas are offered at the secondary, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Individuals looking to supplement their careers or education can enroll in a diploma program. Diplomas can enhance a student’s skill set and qualifications by preparing them for a particular career. These programs usually take only a short time to complete.
