29 At the frontline of circular economyTechnical innovation university of the future > Circular economy At the frontline of circular economy ” After having completed a degree in Chemical and Materials Engineering at TUAS, our students can plan, scale and master chemical processes and select the suitable material for each purpose. They can take into account material and energy efficiency and efficient material recycling after the product’s life cycle. We look at production processes from the viewpoint of material efficiency. It means that you have to know how to select the correct material for the correct purpose already at the planning stage. Waste from the processes is utilised as new material or turned into renewable energy. Waste and by-product flows are utilised as raw material by another company.
