In the approval granted by the Ministry of Higher Education in a letter dated 19 March 2002 to the application to offer new program made by Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan & Teknologi Malaysia (KUKTEM) which later became known as Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP), one of the programs approved was Diploma in Chemical Engineering (Process Plant) or currently known as Diploma Kejuruteraan Kimia (DRK).
 
The duration of this diploma program is 2 years and 9 months. Diploma in Chemical Engineering requires students to complete 90 total credit hours. This program has been developed not only to provide students with the knowledge of chemical engineering, but also to give them exposure to aspects of humanities and social sciences through subjects such as English language and foreign languages, entrepreneurship and other non-engineering subjects.

PEO1

To produce graduate who practice in their chemical engineering or related engineering fields such as in plant operation and associated areas including safety, health and environment.

PEO2

To produce graduates who posses chemical engineering knowledge and hands-on skill required to undertake supervision of a team and troubleshooting both in operation and maintenance and associated areas.
 PEO3 To produce graduates who engage in independent and life-long learning, demonstrates having a responsibility and commitment to the profession, community and society.
