Chemical engineering is a highly interdisciplinary engineering discipline, and exists at the crossroads between physics, chemistry, and biology. Chemical engineers design and manage industrial level chemical processes in economic sectors as varied as energy, pharmaceuticals, green technology, and materials research. ploges18 https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204874928 2017-11-08 15:46:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204874928 Phillip Loges ploges18 https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204879348 https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n]]> 2017-11-08 15:52:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204879348 What majors should I pursue? ploges18 https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204881418 Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Proficiency, and molecular biology]]> 2017-11-08 15:55:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204881418 What are the best colleges to attend? ploges18 https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/204884391 1.

The report predicts the number of chemical engineering jobs will increase to 34,900 in 2024 from 34,300 in 2014. This gain of 600 positions translates to 2% growth over that period. However, growth is expected in other industries in which chemical engineers can get into, such as energy research, biotechnology and nanotechnology. Getting a chemical engineering degree opens up many more opportunities for jobs.]]> 2017-11-13 15:35:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/206293795 Salaries ploges18 https://padlet.com/ploges18/h7p9myxvul1n/wish/206296037 The median annual wage for chemical engineers as of May 2014 was $96,940, versus $88,720 for all engineers and $35,540 for all occupations, says the BLS. Among top sectors employing chemical engineers, petroleum and coal products manufacturing provided the highest median annual wage ($112,670); followed by basic chemical manufacturing ($100,530); resin, synthetic rubber and artificial fibers and filaments manufacturing ($100,040); research and development in the physical, engineering and life sciences ($98,860); and engineering services ($96,950).
