Digital Transformation is evolving rapidly, and the implementation of Industry 4.0 has led to an exponential increase in digital sensors and, consequently, in available data. The emergence of Industry 5.0 reinforces this vision and demands the optimization of chemical processes through the application of advanced unit operation models.

The specialisation course “Machine Learning for Chemical Engineering: From Fundamentals to Advanced” aims to equip trainees with basic and advanced skills for creating and analysing complex datasets, applied to the field of Chemical Engineering.

Information:
Start Date: September 7, 2026
End Date: September 11, 2026
Format: In-person (Instituto Superior Técnico)
Duration: 32.5 hours
Level: Advanced

The registration fee varies according to the selected module and the participant’s profile:

– Fundamentals:
€400 (Students) | €800 (Professionals)

– Advanced:
€400 (Students) | €800 (Professionals)

– From Fundamentals to Advanced:
€700 (Students) | €1400 (Professionals)

At the end of the course, participants are expected to be able to:

– Critically analyse and develop hybrid ML models;

– Design control sequences based on the developed models;

– Optimise chemical processes using data-driven approaches.

This course is designed for technical professionals, R&D managers, and researchers in the chemical industry. Basic knowledge of Python is recommended (preparation material provided before the course).
