Chemical engineers can do pretty much anything…really.

They combine chemistry and engineering skills, and apply them to a broad range of industries like manufacturing, food, medicine, automotives, energy, and lots of other areas. Chemical engineers can find new ways to be eco-friendly or how to convert raw materials into other useful forms. In college, they study mathematics, physics, biology, and of course, chemistry. These scientists can work for a variety of companies such as an engineering firm or chemical, pharmaceutical, and food manufacturing companies. A bachelor’s degree in chemical engineering prepares you for this highly versatile career.
