Tanya, India AddedFriday, May 27, 2016 at 10:30 AM job prospects in chemical engineering I am pursuing chemical engineering right now. I am really interested in drafting and I love the subject of chemical reaction engineering. I know chemical engineers can enter a variety of fields. But can you suggest me what job prospect, with the subjects I like, would be suitable for me ?

There are lots of areas you can work in. Examples include managing plant processes and designing systems for optimal operation. Chemical reaction engineers develop models and reactor designs for various applications and can be in demand because many industries rely on the synthesis and processing of chemicals and materials. For instance, the chemical, energy and oil industries, as well as environmental engineering, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, nuclear engineering, and electronic device fabrication – all make use of chemical engineers. Keep up the great work and take diverse classes to get the basics (physics, chemistry- thermodynamics, as well as materials science, etc.) in addition to chemical engineering.
