Chemical Engineering is unique in the engineering profession in that it requires a strong foundation in chemical principles, as well as in the physical and engineering sciences common to all branches of engineering. An education in chemical engineering is one of the broadest in the engineering field.

The chemical engineer may find employment in all phases of technical operations. Chemical process industries supply society with a vast array of products, including chemicals, fuels, plastics, metals, foods, pharmaceuticals, textiles, and cryogenic materials. In recent years, chemical engineers have found employment in the microelectronics, advanced materials, nano-material, biochemical and biomedical engineering industries and fields. Chemical engineers also serve society by reducing and eliminating pollution and by ensuring the quality and safety of chemical processes.
