Glad I stumbled across this channel, many interesting videos. I'm about 5 years post graduation chem eng and it took me several different roles (ops, sales) to eventually be a process engineer designing and managing EPC projects
Thanks for the thorough video! I’m currently working on optimizing electro catalytic processes for stabilizing bio fuels for my PhD. I’m hoping to work on fuels in the future in some R&D or process design role.
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy I would be happy to do an interview sometime! I will say that I am by no means an expert in this field yet (I am a first-year PhD student), but I can discuss general ideas and much of the current research in the field. If you PM me I'd be happy to discuss when/how an interview could happen in the near future!
I am a PLC Engineer for HVAC Control System. But I have passion to work on process control or application engineer positions on complex processing plants.
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy I work on Tengizchevroil's FGP project, heard about it? so this place is dusty and hot in summer, cold and windy in winter. Because of that all control cabinets are located in enclosures (containers). HVAC is maintaining microclimate inside of them.
I was an Automation Engineer but I was actually doing Data Science hahaha in industry sometimes they do not care about the names nor the job specifications.
Thanks for the video! I heard chemical engineers don't touch chemicals that much in their life, so I'm having my doubts. Glad to hear R&D is still a viable choice
Yep, some ChemE will never actually interact with thr chemical... In my engineering job I did interacted with polymer, chips, textile and cloth which was great
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy I think what he meant is interaction in terms of doing the lab works like the chemist. Most chemical engineers works in plant but we are not the one working in the lab doing chemical analysis,
Yeah, i can say 99% of chemical engineers dont touch chemicals in the lab. We work in the plant of course but not doing lab work, the lab work is done by the chemist. So, if you are interested in lab work, better you study Chemistry and not Chemical Engineering.
Hi! Petrochemical Engineers are always required, but you need to apply directly to Oil&Gas companies... To be honest, you are much more employable than a ChemE in a Refinery :)
I work in the O&G industry. Offshore Oil and Gas processing is similar to other plants, what makes it different is the feed, product, and the location. We also have Process Design engineer, Process technologist, and Operation Engineer working for the plant. It is not much difference with other chemical process plant environment. Typically chemical engineering grads will work in the following position in the oil and gas: 1. Process design engineer 2. Operation engineer 3. Process safety engineer 4. Flow assurance engineer 5. Reservoir engineer 6. Several others position
Sounds a good idea, I only know 1 person that did his research focused on catalysts... it was on a refinery and catalyst from FCC, HCrackers and such... I think is a great way to go... Catalyst are very important and will be very important as $$ keeps being a relevant factor
I'm really struggling to choose in between chemical engineering, process engineering and production engineering. I also have plans to do master's. So, what would be the better option and more flexible degree to take in bachelor's?
I' ll say chemical is more flexible, production and process engineering are mostly towards manufacturing... chemical can do that, as well as more "admin" stuff, marketing, finances, strategy, product innovation, etc... also, when doing a Master, you can "reset" your career path, so make no worries
Quick question if I could... I'm really wanting to get the degree that will help me most with getting into a notable and innovative R&D position. Mainly focusing on environmental solutions... Would you recommend a Chemical Engineering degree or would something else come to mind? Thank you for the great video! Got several positions I'm interested in all noted.
If you are 100% sure, go for something already in Environmental Engineering... To be honest, I would bet Chemical Engineering, since it has an open field, you can always focus only in environmental, or any other industry... As an Environmental Engineer, it will be harder (not impossible) to shift between industries. Either way, if you are already 100% sure of environmental, go for it
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy Thank you so much. I'm likely going to stick with Chemical Engineering. I'd rather be able to shift between industries if ever needed/wanted. I never know what the future me has in mind, lol. Thanks again!
@@masonlarsen8164 Exactly my thaughts... Although Environmental is too strong nowadays... it will be relevant in the future, so it is not 100% uncertain. I would go for a master degree on environmental (if you are still interested after 4 years of ChemE)
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy What a great idea, I hadn't even considered that as an option. I appreciate the thorough responses! Looking forward to watching more of your content when I can.
I have done my b-tech in chemical engineering from India ..and i have done my internship of 6 month also ..sir how I'll apply for jobs in USA chemical industry
Try via linkedin, not quite sure for Indian Reisdents, how the visa or work permit works, but should be pretty similar, get an interview, get a job and get sponsored
I really think is kinda generic job position, i.e. any engineer can fill that job, BUT, it is in fact a very required position, so if you like it, enjoy it, then go for it
Hii sir I am from India and i am doing my engineering with branch petrochemical engineering I want to know want kind of jobs are available in this soo can you plsssssss make a video on this ........
Hi there! Well congrats in doing an engineering degree, thats awesome overall... If you are focusing into petrochem, you will most likely go for energies, refining, downstream, LNG, or petrochemical industry itself... You can also shift towards polymer
Hi, I'm on my last year of chemE and my plan is to find an intern job next semester, I am doing my thesis as a means of getting my degree, and it's about materials and catalysis, what job position do you recommend me to postulate in? I mean, other than just material engineer, how else could I start of if my main goal is to work on a steam plant/thermoelectric plant? Thank you!
You are studying, do not "niche" down on your thesis... Go for any field or job you enjoy. A covid note: get any job available, unfortunately the job market is not nice so anything is far better than nothing!

Just finished my bachelor degree... And got my first job as R&D Staff for packaging. can't wait where this job will lead me to.
Congrats indeed! I'm happy for you, let us know how it goes in the future!
any update on the job?
Glad I stumbled across this channel, many interesting videos. I'm about 5 years post graduation chem eng and it took me several different roles (ops, sales) to eventually be a process engineer designing and managing EPC projects
Hi Connor, nice to hear that! What is your main industry or product ?
Thanks for the thorough video! I’m currently working on optimizing electro catalytic processes for stabilizing bio fuels for my PhD. I’m hoping to work on fuels in the future in some R&D or process design role.
Hey, that sounds cool! It will be great to have you on an invterview or podcast so ChemE know about the field :=)

HVAC is a nice area to work in, always present in lots of other industries... What processes do you attend?

can you give me your email plz. i am a chemical engineering student. i have some things know from you
I was an Automation Engineer but I was actually doing Data Science hahaha in industry sometimes they do not care about the names nor the job specifications.
True, sometimes they just mutate or transform into other job titles and end up being other jobs hehe
Thanks for the video! I heard chemical engineers don't touch chemicals that much in their life, so I'm having my doubts. Glad to hear R&D is still a viable choice

Whatsup! Im literally working on that video! Its about the best Master degrees for ChemE
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy Waiting for it!!
Chido 😀👍
I didn’t take biology subjects and computer science subjects in igcse. Can I still take ChemENG? I took Amath tho
yeah, I think you can, worst case scenario you'll get training
Can I design equipment or design specific parts of machines needed for a chemical processes a chemical engineer?
Yeah, although this might be done by a mechanical or electrical engineer in The end
I have done my b-tech in chemical engineering from India ..and i have done my internship of 6 month also ..sir how I'll apply for jobs in USA chemical industry

Can chemical engineer work in a construction company?
More likely in a construction materials company.
yes
Where is production manager?
True, it is a normal job, although not many ChemE will achieve any management role in their lives
i like the crypto portions
where do I fined a job ??
LinkedIn is a great tool now a days... Also your university job burse will be great to start with
