You were spot on 🎯 with the process control engineer! I did an internship as one 2 years ago and everything you described was exactly what I experienced! Currently left a job and on the lookout for a new career as a chemical engineer. This video was very helpful. Thanks for sharing/informing!
Yo man, your content is so amazing and useful, can you make a video talking about the best companies where a chemical engineer can work as a latin foreign? best regards from Mexico
I'd like to know a bit more about the quality sector, environmental, manufacturing and production. If you could talk about them sometime, it'd be great!
Such an informational video! Hoping I had stumbled upon it in my freshman year~ Not sure if it is relevant, but will be interested to know how can a ChemEng fit in a production planning role. Thanks~
I’m most likely gonna be a chemical engineering major and The role that sounds the most interesting for me and I may even be passionate about it is R&D but that’s most likely because I really like science and I’m more of a scientist rather then an engineer 😅 and even would like to be in a lab second is process engineer but I may change to chemistry but I’m scared of changing to chem because of all the things I hear and that chemE is more flexible but if I did go chemE and didn’t change to chem I’ll do all I can to go into R&D at least I hope so 😅
@@shawn.builds the problem is i do find chemical biological/biomedical and materials engineering(but only chemical is available for me) the most interesting out of the other engineering disciplines like mechanical and electrical etc but i'm way more interested in science mainly chemistry biochemistry biotechnology microbiology biomedical science materials science etc but people or mostly family tell me to choose engineering instead because it pays more and have more jobs and they even tell me to at least give it a try if im not going to it XD
I'll be really direct here. I'm a freshmen in chemical engineering, and although I like the subject but still wanted to ask, what's the best paying job for a chemical engineer? And you can include the whole spectrum from a sales engineer with bachelors in chemical engineering to a PhD. Professional involved in R n D. Just wanted to know which job is the best economically
oil/gas+ mining + pharmaceuticals for high starting salaries. i think with sales engineers or consulting you might have variable pay which could increase your yearly salary. if you want to make more, living in rural locations is a plus
this video is very helpful, can you make a follow-up video. Also, I know that material science and engineering is a related field, could you make a video on the difference? thank you
I am interested in R&D, as a chemical engineer would I need a Masters degree in order to work on that industry? Along with research experience or internship?
Hey Shawn. Its summer so I've been looking to develop my technical skills. I wanted to know what kinda softwares are useful as a Chem engineer. I know of a few such as ASPEN, MATLAB, ChemCad. Also is MySQL useful along the road??
They're all useful skills but what is most important is that you have PROJECTS that demonstrate those skills! Idk about MySQL but process modelling and coding will fulfill most requirements!
You are doing an excellent job of YouTubing. Much needed in the world of chemical engineers. And companies. Keep up the good work. Would love to kick a journalistic can back and forth with you. Sometime. And get more news from Vancouver. Some interesting startUps one would like to keep track of. Sincerly Jakob Ramlau Eriksen. Copenhagen.
@@hatdogka543 it's ok to be shy, but you will have to talk to lots of different people in your role, either in delegating work or in presenting information to others. I'm a pretty shy person as well but it's definitely a skill that you can improve on!
Hello buddy can you please brief us how to enter in oil and gas industry as a process engineer. Means topic prepare for interviews and software's skills ?
Hello @Shawn , thanks for this great video But there's something I want to know, I love coding , drawing and programming yet am doing chemical engineering(second year), how can these skills of mine be applied in chemical engineering field , thanks
This is one example. You've got a bright future ahead of you if you enjoying coding. www.reddit.com/r/AskEngineers/comments/6n265t/what_are_some_applications_of_machine_learning/
a lot of plants and industrial facilities are in more rural areas. site locations for oil and gas and mining may have a FIFO (fly in fly out) work policy, e.g. you work for 2 weeks on site (working 10-12hr shifts) then they fly you home and you're off for two weeks. you could also work for consulting companies which are based in cities, however, the most pay will usually be at rural areas
yes you can either work for a company that just designs a specific piece of equipment (e.g. heat exchangers) or within a company, you might have to source and spec out a piece of equipment that you need at the plant
@@shawn.builds As in a work of a petroleum engineer can also be worked of chemical engineer in an oil and gas industry? I heard one of my friend's dad's first work in the offshore is roustabout and roughneck. I want to ask, is that for what type of engineering? My friend's dad is an undergraduate, and I am curious about it because it is a critical decision I am facing right now. Please, I need a response.
Hi, I have a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering. I'm planning to go Canada for my master's in the same. Can you pls suggest me some universities. Also, are there are any one year courses I can do post my bachelor's.
Hi bro I am completed my degree of chemical engineering I want to a job of gulf countries how to get job in gulf countries please help me I have 3 yrs industrial experience ..
Which country gives best average salary to chemical engineers ? & Which is the country which has highest demand of chem eng. ! If u know then plz drop a comment 💯💔
This helped me more than school and I'm the same year as you 😂
😂 I learn a lot just doing this research tbh
But didn’t school teach you chemical engineering??

Hmm yeah I could probably do that!
@@shawn.builds yes plz
Awesome video! I really like the process and process control areas. Do you plan on doing another video talking about the other possible areas??
Awesome! Yeah those are two of my faves too. Which other roles were you interested in?
I'd like to know a bit more about the quality sector, environmental, manufacturing and production. If you could talk about them sometime, it'd be great!
Really helpful video. And that dog at the back is so cute 🌸

yeah chem E is more flexible, you can do R&D or manufacturing with it, whereas chemistry is mostly R&D

Hello @Kanak how can I acquire those skills in MATLAB and Aspen
Would you suggest a post graduation immediately after pursuing B tech or a training program, internship etc
During your studies, did you stumble upon anything ‘pyrolysis of plastic’ related?
No but I’ve heard about it!
Thanks a lot!

Hey Shawn, is there any work option related with dentistry that looking for ChemE graduated person??
Not sure... those are pretty different but I think you can do any undergrad to get into dentistry school
Hi, I'm a SHS student and I wanted to ask questions for important subjects you should focused as a g12 student when taking Chem Engineering
physics, math, chemistry
@@shawn.builds Thanks
@@shawn.builds What is the easiest job for Chem E graduate?
Hi. Is it okay to take Chem E even you're a shy type person?
@@hatdogka543 it's ok to be shy, but you will have to talk to lots of different people in your role, either in delegating work or in presenting information to others. I'm a pretty shy person as well but it's definitely a skill that you can improve on!
What do you think about teaching side at Universities?
Hello buddy can you please brief us how to enter in oil and gas industry as a process engineer.
Means topic prepare for interviews and software's skills ?
Process modelling with Aspen plus or hysys, process control, monitoring process trends, writing engineering docs like PFDs, P&IDs, BOMs, safety docs
@@shawn.builds thank you Shawn 👌

Do you work with any ChemE’s that started off with a Bachelors in chemistry?
I graduated with a friend who switched from Chemistry into Chem E. not sure if you can work as a Chem E with a chemistry degree tho.
Hey I wanted to know a diplomat in chemical engineering which types of jobs he will be dealing with
not sure what a chem E diplomat is
You mean subjects that I'm studying
So that u can describe were I can work
Have you ever worked with Petroleum Engineers?
no not yet, i don't have a lot of experience in oil and gas
This video helped me a lot....will u plz tell me about In which course we can do master degree in chemical engineering...
go to any universities chemical engineering professors research pages, that's all you need to know www.chbe.ubc.ca/research/
is it true that you will mostly have to work in rural areas to be able to get a job in CE?
a lot of plants and industrial facilities are in more rural areas. site locations for oil and gas and mining may have a FIFO (fly in fly out) work policy, e.g. you work for 2 weeks on site (working 10-12hr shifts) then they fly you home and you're off for two weeks. you could also work for consulting companies which are based in cities, however, the most pay will usually be at rural areas
@@shawn.builds thank you for the detailed reply, very appreciated.
How can we get into food industry if we do chem E ?
It’s pretty much the same as getting into any other industry, get experience and build your process engineering skills
So the highest or the most prestigious post is process engineering!
Hi Shawn!! Is there any job like Chemical Engineering+ coding(HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT, PYTHON)???
More like using FORTRAN to write custom scripts within Aspen, or you could do data analysis with Python
It is on Matlab - it is more for research purposes, like for mathematic models of processes, or optimization of processes.
Hi! How do you apply drafting on your job as a chemical engineer?
not really, usually a company will have dedicated drafters
Hi Shawn bro how is the job market in Canada for chemEs pls reply ....
lots of pulp and paper in british columbia, oil and gas is huge in alberta, nuclear in ontario
Hi i wanna ask you if chemE can make chemical products
Yes that’s the majority of what we do
what was your job at paper mill?? i didnt knew chemical engineers could work there i am asking as a chemical engineer
you can work there as a Process Engineer or Instrumentation Engineer
