In this video I discuss "What is chemical engineering?" To put simply, in chemical engineering you design processes to transport, transform, and produce materials. Chemical engineering is much more than just working with chemicals. You have to design chemical plants, reactors, and work with the processes that go into many of the products we know of. Careers in chemical engineering include alternative energy, food production, electronics, industrial chemicals, petroleum, and more.
In this video I also discuss chemistry vs chemical engineering and how to know which major may be better for you. As a chemistry major you'd dive deeper into learning chemical reactions on a smaller scale and wouldn't learn any of the engineering principles to scale these reactions. Simply put, if you want to work solely in a lab, and work with chemical reactions, then you might want to major in chemistry or biochemistry. However, if you want to take those reactions, but figure out how to make them happen on a large scale, so they can go out to consumers or businesses, then a major in chemical engineering would be better for you. Chemical engineers can work with chemicals in a lab, but it's just less common to hear of this.

Chemical Engineer: knows enough mechanics to confuse a chemist, knows enough chemistry to confuse a mechanic, knows enough math to confuse himself.

Even my buddies in other disciplines think so. I had to explain to them that organic chemistry is the only course relevant to chemistry. Even courses such as "Chemical Reactions Engineering" have misleading titles. As far as chemistry is concerned, there's only stoichiometry and kinetics. The focus is mostly on designing (sizing) reactors and fluid flow.

@@omarh.6869 ​ I feel like I was led to believe employers would be lining up to give me jobs after I graduated, and that's not really the case. That's not to say there are a lack of jobs, just that job hunting is still a long, time consuming process. I'm lucky that my university sets up lots of opportunities for employers to interact with us (career fairs, talks with industry leaders, etc.), but I still have to shake dozens of hands and hand over my resume--just like everyone else. I'm currently in the process of applying/interviewing with ~20 employers right now, so there's definitely demand for chemical engineers. Just make sure to put in the work early on, so you're not worrying about finding a job by summer time. There are plenty of jobs, but you still gotta look for them. Hope that helped.

I don't get what the point of your comment is. Almost all stem majors require at least one semester of general chemistry. You are not taught chemistry with the intention of making you a chemist. So don't expect high level teaching and lab equipment. They need to change the name of chemical engineering to process engineering. Chemical engineering has almost nothing to do with chemistry. My friend told me this, he was dissapointed about the program and switched majors to chemistry a few years ago. Now I believe he is doing research in material science for superconducting materials. Chemical engineers don't even touch that.

I'm currently on my 12th grade and will be taking college entrance exams this coming months. It took me a lot of time before I've finally decided what course should I take when I got into college. I was a special science class student when I was on my junior high school years and continued specializing on science when I entered senior high school, and so I ended up taking science related track. I love studying science so much, any branch of it but I'm not that good in math, I hate it. So I really struggled choosing what course to take this college. But you know, I want to conquer my fears. I wanna be a chemical engineer, I want to prove myself that I can do it. Nothing will happen if I let this fear eat me up and be a hindrance on reaching my dreams. Fighting, future chemical engineers! We can do this

One other major career you can have after obtaining a chemical engineering degree is as a facilities engineer, nearly every single pharma/biotech/semiconductor company also needs facilities such as purified water or facilities for acid waste neutralisation. After obtaining a degree in Chem Eng you have a good grasp of the major chemical reactions/processes and unit operations for these type of roles. Facilities are key for all plants and knowledge of chem eng is a major help in this area.

I'm a Chemical Enginneering student. Fun fact, the first thing my teachers told me when I went there for the first time was: "Chemical Engineering has almost nothing to do with chemistry, in fact, it's not a good name for the course, it should be named as Process Engineering". So yes, the video is totally accurate.

As a 4th year ChemE I have learned more about my major in this video than in the last 4 years. My professors always focus on the math and not what the math is for. But one thing, I don't know many chemical engineers that design plants with a Bachelors's degree. Most go into process engineering or research and development with a large company. That's why I find it silly that I'm learning how to design a plant when that's not what I'll end up doing.

Set the system. Making balance equation. Solving differential equation. If you can't, use numerical method software and empirical equation. I think this is the essential of the major. To be a good chemical engineer you should be a good calculator. Try to gain a lot of knowledge as you can such as materials,chemicals, utilities etc.

@@yangfantan4097 One of the best ways is through a summer internship while you are still in college. Companies like Exxonmobil do have programs but I would recommend looking for smaller companies -- maybe one that only owns 2-3 plants. These smaller companies are more likely to give you meaningful work during your internship since they are not as well staffed as a company like Exxonmobil. If you like it then hopefully you can also successfully land a job with them upon graduation. This is how most young people get into the industry.

Manufacture of Beer!! LOL, Most Chemical Engineers I know are damn good at consuming it in copious quantities. Even Budweiser. A few years back I was asked (by a lawyer no less!) what distinguishing functions and design steps needed the input of a Chemical Engineer as compared to "other similarly qualified" persons. I really had to think on that one, in the end I said that I expected the Chemical Engineer developing a chemical process to be able to: • Described the basic steps of the chemical process, kinetics, operating conditions, energy requirements. • Develop the unit processes, considering reactor design, mass transfer and heat transfer. • Complete a comprehensive Process Flow Diagram. • Generate a Mass and Energy Balance including all utilities such as power and water • Completely produce a set of Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams including materials specification • Provide general arrangement and detail design drawings incorporating mechanical structural, civil and electrical detail • Compile a full set of datasheets and specifications for major equipment items • Compile a full set of Valve, Instrumentation, and Pump Lists and Schedules. I said that only a fully qualified and experienced Chemical Engineer could possible complete that task satisfactorily. There are no "similarly qualified" persons.

jokha said Hi! I think it is one ambitious career in every aspect. You are required to integrate every aspect of Engineering and apply maths to make industrial processes efficient, economical and most important environmentaly friendly. Remember that Chemical Engineering was born from people’s needs for everyday products and keep the world moving around. I have Ch Engineering peers working in all sorts of industries, even in marketing, management and director positions. They say it is very easy to go from ChE to any other engineering, but quite difficult to go the other way around. Hope this will be helpful! Think always in people’s needs and the planet we are borrowing from next generations.

General chemistry is basically the starting point for chemistry, so you learn all the fundamentals like nomenclature, types of reactions (acid/base, redox), types of bonds, etc. I'm taking the 'real' General Chemistry right now in the Summer, and it's basically the EXACT same topics that we went over in 'Intro to General Chem', except a little bit more in depth, and the pace is faster, but I think the pace is faster only b/c I'm taking it over the Summer. Definitely think I would have been fine if they had let me take General Chem without Intro to Chem (would have been nice save the time and money).
