WHAT DO CHEMICAL ENGINEERS STUDY?
Chemical engineering uses chemistry, biology,
and physics to solve different problems
Some problems involve the production of food,
fuel, drugs, and chemicals etc.
Chemical engineers design things for
manufacturing at a large scale safely

WHAT DO CHEMICAL ENGINEERS STUDY? CONT.
Chemical engineers will transform raw materials
into products that we use all the time in our daily lives
Some chemical engineers specialize in:• Chemical manufacturing• Advanced materials manufacturing• Biomedical engineering• pharmaceuticals• Renewable energy• Food processing

WHAT IT ’S L IKE BEING A CHEMICAL ENGINEER?
Chemical Engineers mainly work in offices and in
laboratories
As of 2010 the median pay was $90,300 a year
In 2010 there was about 30,200 jobs in the U.S.
Some chemical engineers travel constantly in and out of
the U.S.
They don’t have much on the job training for chemical
engineers, if any at all

WHAT IT ’S L IKE BEING A CHEMICAL ENGINEER
Chemical engineering is dependent on the
manufacturing of products
Chemical engineering is a full time job for most
people in this field
Some chemical engineers spend a lot of time
monitoring the operations and solving onsite
problems

HOW DO I BECOME A CHEMICAL ENGINEER
You must have at least a bachelors degree in chemical
engineering
Though it is not required they do recommend getting a license,
to do this you must:• Get a degree from an accredited engineering program• Pass two different exams• And have chemical engineering work experience
Some important qualities are:• Teamwork• Math, deductive reasoning, and problem solving skills among many
others

HOW TO BECOME A CHEMICAL ENGINEER
When in college, students must take math, physics,
biology, and chemistry
Some colleges offer hands on experience while
studying chemical engineering

ACHIEVEMENTS OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERS
Chemical engineers helped purify our drinking
water
Helped with nuclear technologies development
Some health technologies would be set back if it
weren’t for chemical engineering
