I received a BSChE in 1989.  For a recent grad, going through the university is the best bet - many large companies hold on-campus interviews.  Also, professors are a good source for networking with the industry.  It also helps to have had co-operative or intern experience with a company to get your foot in the door.\n\nIt is important to develop a broad network of professionals that you know and can contact for job information within your particular industry.  Ideally, if you can start this at a young age you'll be way ahead of everyone else.\n\nAs far as the internet, most job postings on there are for people with at least some work experience.  The best sites for chemical engineers are:\n\nCareerbuilder.com\nMonster.com\nIndeed.com

It really depends on your skills and interests. I had two roommates in college taking chemical engineering. One was able to breeze through all the courses. The other one struggled but he really liked the courses so he stuck with it and did just fine.\n\nDon't worry about what is hard, follow the direction you enjoy. In the long run that is the best.

There are a couple of ways to answer your question.  Engineering in general is difficult and that can be seen in the number of people that drop out or change major before their second year of college.  As far as the difficulty of chemical engineering over other disciplines, (other engineers may disagree with me), it is not any more difficult than any other field.  \nWhat makes any engineering discipline hard is the amount of study versus how much you enjoy it.  \nI am a Masters Degreed Chemical Engineer, who knew that the chemical manufacturing industry is where I wanted to work as I entered college.  As a result, I enjoyed the upper level class work even though it was difficult (my grades would prove that).  But where most people find engineering in general difficult is the first couple of years when you have a high class load before you even get to your major.  If you are willing to get through that, then in your junior year the classes actually apply to your major and become 'fun'.  See the attached link for salary info

If you go to a search engine, like google, you can just type in "balancing chemical equations" and it will give you tons of info. We were doing this in chemistry a few weeks ago, and thats how I found alot of help online. \n\nGood luck!!

Lisa S. Said:\n\n"Amazon lists this one as being highly rated (five stars) --Chemical Engineering Design and Analysis : An Introduction (Cambridge Series in Chemical Engineering) (Paperback)-- around $25 used."\n\nHey!  My first Chem E professor wrote that book!\n\nI'd agree it's a very good book for a first course in ChemE, and it is the only text book I bought that I actually read cover-to-cover.  At Berkeley, that book was used for the introductory course on "Material and energy balances applied to chemical process systems. Determination of thermodynamic properties needed for such calculations. Sources of data. Calculation procedures."\n\nI would definitely second that book as a recommendation.  It does a great job of preparing you for everything else to come, and the line of reasoning is very coherent.  Rather than just throwing some mathematical tools at you, it gives you the sort of comprehension necessary for performing intelligent analysis.

chemical engineering is a well paying field in high demand. there are thousands of factories, big and small, that need someone with this specialty. oil, plastics, fertilizers, paints, lots of other areas use a ChemE.

First make a chemical equation, balance it, and find a mole ratio.  Use that ratio and the above information to solve the problem.

Hey, \n    \n    Im a chemical engineer too!\nFor a scholarship, they usually offer some at any University where they offer a major for it.\n\nBut, you can also get a chemE scholarship from off the ACS website whic is the american chemical society, I was going to do it last year but I missed the deadline. There's also a chemE news magzine that also offers scholarships specifically for our major.\n\nI hope this helps even though the last 2 I mentioned are not part of a university. They aren't too well known so it should up your chances though. good luck :)\n\np.s.\n\nchemE's rule the world!

I am a Chemical Engineer going into my Senior year also at state school. The main things to work on are maintaining or increasing GPA, obtaining good recommendations, writing a good essay, studying for the GRE, and networking! As for your summer, take a couple of classes you can relax in and study for the GRE. Grad school admissions will probably ask what summer experience you've gotten so its best to either volunteer or work for something computer-related, in your case. I would try to find a local computing company willing to take a volunteer worker with your CE knowledge or apply for a technical aide position. The key is to make the best of your experience this summer. If those don't work, try to obtain an undergrad research position at your school under a professor. Research might be also to pay for your hours of work or you can do it for volunteer, whatever will take up a lot of that free time you have. Stay busy and you'll be able to make the best of your time.\n\nTo improve your chances in graduate school, follow the suggestions I spoke about and try talking with grad students you might know and professors. Invaluable experience can often be made inexpensive just by talking with them!

Search the web and search images one location will lead you to another. You should be able to get some answers from some chemistry majors on here as well. Obviously I'm not one.

Besides taking chemistry, take lots of math classes and other sciences as well. Taking them on the AP level will definitely help. As far as good schools, US News says the best for chemical engineering are: \n1. Massachusetts Inst. of Technology\n2. University of California–Berkeley \n3. Univ. of Minnesota–Twin Cities \n\nCheck out http://www.usnews.com/usnews/edu/college/rankings/brief/engineering/phd/enps03_brief.php\nhttp://experts.about.com/q/Careers-Chemistry-1498/Good-Chemistry-Schools.htm

Hey I'm studying physical and chemical equilibrium too, currently.The answer is that it will definitely have units when the concentrations have different powers.Just try and work it out with the units and it will be very clear.

Lots of chemical engineers go in to the brewing/fermentation industry. You could work as a beer brewer or make industrial alcohol. Also, there are lots of jobs for chemical engineers in the cosmetics and personal hygiene industries making soap, shampoo makeup, hair cair products, etc. I also know one chemical engineer who is a perfumer. He works for a major brand creating the new scents.
