H8 Chemical, process and energy engineering course codes

By UCAS's old subject scheme, a course code starting H8 means chemical, process and energy engineering, in the engineering area (H). 161 courses at 45 UK universities use one for 2027 entry: most ask for between 104 and 131 UCAS points; 49 courses quote A-level grades instead, most often AAA. Another 20 joint honours courses carry H8 as their second subject.
