    UOP Engineering Design Seminar

    Course Description

    Course Overview
    This intensive nine week program gives participants the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of
    refining process design. Each topic is presented in the context of the design of a refinery
    process unit or the selection of a specific type of refinery equipment. Seminar sessions are led
    by UOP process design and equipment design specialists who demonstrate how to apply
    engineering principles to solve design problems.
