What is Chemical Engineering?
Chemical Engineering is the study of process mechanics. We apply the principles of science, math, and economics to convert raw materials into valuable products. Chemical Engineering is commonly referred to as process engineering. Chemical Engineers typically work in fields related to large scale production. Some examples of these fields are petroleum, biomedical, and chemical production. For more information see links or visit Why Not Chem Eng?
