More Reasons to become a Chemical Engineer Chemical engineers are not only skilled in the arts of chemical engineering, but are trained to be excellent problem solvers, to work efficiently, and to produce high quality results. Students with a degree in chemical engineering are sought after by employers in all fields, from engineering consulting, to law and medicine. Most importantly, however, chemical engineering trains the student to think, from the microscopic level to the engineering process level. Chemical engineers work in biomaterials, tissue engineering, environmental engineering, materials science, and many other fast paced, growing industries.
Chemical engineering is a versatile, exciting field in today's world.
Some of the best opportunities for the job outlook are with the petroleum, tire and rubber producers, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals, environmental, process design, and consulting companies. There are many reasons to be a chemical engineer. Chemical engineers take chemistry out of the laboratory and into the factory and the world around us. They are creative problem solvers, who apply scientific knowledge and technical expertise to make useful materials at a reasonable cost and in the safest manner possible. Chemical engineers are seriously involved in environmental control technology, not only in cleaning up the problems of the past, but in preventing pollution for our future.
