Textile Polymer & Color Chemistry Engineering Program

Description & Advantages of the Program

• The Polymer and Colour Chemistry Engineering program at the NMU is a unique program in Egypt and addresses the science and technology of the fascinating fields of polymers and colour chemistry. Our students learn the core physical science subjects yet focus on one of a number of important applied chemical textile technology related fields like dyeing, printing and finishing.
• Polymers: In addition to their critical role in all living organisms (proteins, DNA, etc.) polymers are found in most of the materials we use in our daily lives. The TPC program provides education on the chemical engineering of textiles and the uses of polymers as well as their structural feature relationships.
• Colour: Almost all materials are coloured in some way, either by dyeing, printing, packaging, or painting for instance. The chemical, physical and perceptual aspects of colour and their application to textiles are studied.
• A powerful benefit to obtaining a BS in Polymer and Colour Chemistry is its versatility. It allows students to enter a variety of key industries. The choice that the student has to seek employment directly after graduation remains a strong attraction for this degree program.

Job Opportunities

• The graduate of this program has the opportunity to work in all sections of dyeing, printing and finishing of textiles, as well as the preparation of colours for textiles, as well as in research centres, whether locally or internationally.
