CHEMICAL ENGINEERING

principles of chemistry

Chemical engineering apply the principles of chemistry, biology, physics, and math to solve problems that involve the production or use of chemicals, fuel, drugs, food, and many other products.

Chemical Processing

Some chemical engineers, known as process engineers, specialize in a particular process, such as oxidation (a reaction of oxygen with chemicals to make other chemicals).

CAREER

8% Growth

Employment of chemical engineers is projected to grow 8 percent over the next ten years, about as fast as the average for all occupations. Demand for chemical engineers' services.

overseas Job Chance

Chemical engineering will continue to migrate into dynamic fields, such as nanotechnology, alternative energies, and biotechnology, and thereby help to sustain demand for engineering services in overseas.
