She was a mathematician who wrote instructions for the first computer program in the mid-1800s.

She introduced many computer concepts, so she is considered the first computer programmer.

Her mother believed in engaging Ada in rigorous studies

Lovelace showed a talent for numbers and language.

She contributed a lot to the computer science and engineering field.

This relates to chemical engineering because these innovations allowed the chemical engineers to be able to do the many things they do today.

They use computer programs for modeling and other things that require extensive manipulating.

Ada Lovelace received posthumous honors for her work because her contributions were found after her death. A computer language is named after her.

She foresaw the capabilities of computers and spent her life learning the various things a computer can do with code through computer science.

The ambitions of Ada Lovelace set the stage for more ideas yet to come and contributing to math and science related fields.

Research and design to development, production, technical sales, and management are a few tasks that chemical engineers have to do.

This job requires extensive problem solving.

Theoretical modeling of production processes and analysis have to be done by chemical engineers.

They work with many people to create efficient, safe, and cost effective methods of reproducing valuable items.

Skilled chemical engineers try to refine their systems and make them safer and more efficient.

I was interested in this field because I like math and science and want to pursue a career which has to do with both.

It is very likely that I will become an engineer, but I have to decide what type of engineer I want to be.

I chose chemical engineering because chemistry is a widely used subject, and I want to see how it is used in engineering.

I also have a friend who is studying at the University of Texas at Austin to become a chemical engineer.

# data[].attributes.body
These are some classes that chemical engineers have to take in college.

A full year of basic chemistry

One semester of organic chemistry

One semester of molecular biology

One advanced chemistry course and one advanced chemical engineering course

A course in differential equation

These are basic subjects that a chemical engineer should take.

Chemistry

Biology

Physics

Trigonometry

Calculus

Algebra

Some universities offer 5 year programs which  will give a achelor's as well as a Master's degree.

# data[].attributes.body
Chemical engineers usually work in laboratories and offices. They might have to travel to refineries or industrial plants to solve problems in the site.

The pay range for someone starting in this field is $75,000-$82,000.

This career is predicted to grow by 6% in the next decade which is slower than an average job.

3 positives

Flexibility: There are many different things that can be done such as engineer a healthier soft drink or make plastic products that are easily biodegradable. The variety of options in this field is what draws attention of others.

Meaningful Advancements to Society: Many possibilities of innovations are available and one could be finding a way to eliminate the oil usage. This would change the world because currently the world has a high oil usage.

High Pay Benefits: According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics in 2012, chemical engineers earned a median salary of $94,450. In Texas, chemical engineers had an average salary of $120,700.

3 Negatives

Hazardous Working Conditions: Chemical engineers can be exposed to dangerous conditions in their workplace. Even though safety precautions are taken, accidents can still happen at mining facilities, manufacturing plants, and chemical processing operations. They can suffer chronic exposure or be exposed to toxic chemicals.

Extended Post-Secondary Education: Chemical engineers will need a master’s degree and often times a doctoral degree as well to be well qualified for this job. This requires many years of studying and a lot of money for courses.

Poor Job Prospects: As mentioned above, this job is predicted to grow very less in the next few years. New technologies such as biotechnology could decrease the demand for chemical engineers.
