Hi, great video that I’m going to show my son who’s a first year undergraduate in the UK. He’s having some worries at the moment as he doesn’t want to be tied into a factory setting when he gets into industry. Do you know what other kind of settings there are other than factory? Is there much outdoors that may involve plenty of travel?
Awesome, I think that chemical engineers working in upstream sourcing of Oil & Gas will spend a lot of time outside and traveling around the world. Large scale water treatment projects can also involve a lot of travel and outdoor work. There are chemical engineers who focus on large projects such as the start up of new chemical plants and they travel a lot as well. Sales and consulting engineers probably see the most travel. If they like to travel, chemical engineering is a good gig.
Thanks for the video Eggs. If you have a bachelors in ChemE already and want to get into manufacturing advanced materials (like semiconductors, fuel cells) does it make more sense to study masters in Materials Engineering or Chemical Engineering?
Thanks for this GREAT video, Im a fresh graduate and I have problem with finding an internship so I can gain experience , I really like semiconductors but unfortinatly its not very common in JORDAN,Middle east So I hope to get an advice in order to have my first step😁
Pulp and Paper is actually growing, a little but growing nonetheless. Also, most pulp & paper mills are hiring. Why? They lack chemical/process engineers. I know 2 plants where more than half of all chemical engineers at the plants are 2 - 5 years from retirement. One will (try to) hire 5 chemical engineers over the next 3 - 6 months, with the aim of building a group for the long term.
Just subbed to your channel! Enjoyed your content very much 😄 Do you have a list of top companies that you would recommend based on these top 5 industries? I am a Chemical Engineer from Malaysia seeking career opportunities too. Thanks in advance!
Thanks! Yeah, I'm not sure about Malaysia... But in general, the larger, more multi-national companies will be the best to work for because they have more resources and more opportunities available within the company. Maybe just look up something like "largest chemical companies in Malaysia" or something. And don't forget to check out websites like Glassdoor to see employee salaries and ratings.
Hello! I'm from South Korea and my major is also chemical engineering. So your video is SO interesting. And I wonder, what is the most preferred industry for chemical engineering students in the United States? Is it the same as your video ranking? In South Korea, Semi conductor industry is the most and battery industry.
Hello, very interesting to hear about the South Korean perspective! I can imagine that with all the consumer electronics exports from South Korea, battery and semiconductor industries would very popular. I wonder what this graph would look like in South Korea... In general, I would say that pharmaceutical and Oil/Gas industries are the most desirable destinations for chemical engineers in the USA. The Oil and Gas numbers used in this video ranking are probably a lot lower than normal based on the crude oil pricing issues in 2020, and I expect them to rise a bit in the coming years. The best industry also depends on location. In New England it's probably pharmaceuticals, in the south it's oil/gas, and in California it's probably semiconductors.
@@EggsEngineering Ah, thanks for the comment, sincerely. One of the interest point is that pharmaceutical and Oil/Gas industries in Korea is actually not preferred to Korean ChemE students. 1. Gas/Oil industry ; In Korea, the Oil/Gas industry has traditionally fewer employees, and once they get a job, they don't get fired and work until retirement. So, if you want to go there, you need a fairly high level of grades and certifications. In other words, entry barriers are high for chemical engineering students. However, it is attractive because of its high salary. And.. as you know, in 2020, the finances of related companies are poor. And in the future, there is a tendency to see that further development is unreasonable due to eco-friendliness and oil depletion. It can be seen as retreating slowly and very slowly. 2. Pharmaceutical industry ; In Korea, Chemical-related departments such as polymer engineering, chemistry, cosmetic engineering, pharmaceutical engineering, and oriental medicine materials are all supported by national universities and colleges nationwide, so from the perspective of chemical engineering students, it is a job market. Also, It's better not to expect an annual salary. Top pharmaceutical companies are really difficult to pass unless they are sales, but their annual salary is only the level of a mid-sized company in other industries. However, the reason why the Semi-conductor and battery industries are so popular with Korean chemical engineering students is that, Samsung's power is huge. Samsung's traditionally has always had a large number of recruits, and since it is the best company in Korea, the salary and welfare are very good. So it is very popular. The battery industry is currently growing rapidly and the market share of companies such as SK Innovation, LG Chem, and SDI is also large. So, it seems that many students are looking forward to future growth. I think it has some differences about preferences between Korea and USA. Interesting. Thanks!
Thank you for the video. I'm in my first year of ChemE but I'm always anxious about my future Bcoz here in India we don't have much opportunities except the government sector which is pretty difficult to get into. So yes I'm just staying hopeful!!!
I'm not as familiar with the indian market, but if your are just starting out, try to focus on building a network. Make connections with professors, peers, and especially people in the industry. Try to get internships to earn experience and connections. Good luck!
@@aurora0405 hello ..i also want to pursue chemical engineering in bachelor and work for environment in india ...can u tell me best institutes for this and your experiences in chemical engineering, please?
I make huge profits on my investment since I started trading with Victoria Olga, her trading strategies are top notch coupled with the little commission she charges on her trade.
With the consistent weekly profits I'm getting investing with Mrs Victoria Olga there's no doubt, she is the most reliable in the market. Such a genius.
I invest with Mrs Victoria too, she charges 10% commission on profit made after every trading session and that is fair compared to the effort she puts in to make huge profit
Amazing I also just started trading with Mrs Victoria Olga , she is the best at what he does with an initial investment of $1600 I made up to $5230 in just a week of trading with her, her strategies are mind blowing!.
Im in a pharmaceutical company but its not even chemical engineering involved. Its a transdermal coating line where an adhesive is extruded onto a floating web that passes through ovens and is then laminated onto polyethylene backing. Im trying to branch out of this but all the jobs i search under “process engineer” are under the industrial context (i.e an automated packaging line with mechanical and electromechanical equipment , sensors, plc’s etc. how can i find process engineering jobs that relate to actual chemical engineering ? I.e working with reactions, enthalpies, entropies, heat exchangers , reactors or distillation columns , but while still in the pharma industry? Like batch reactors. Or Instead of an automation line where the tablets and capsules are packaged , something that requires chemical engineering and not mechanical. Sorry for the long response, im in a tough situation
Hello buddy! What do you think about majoring in Paper Science and Engineering here in the States? I'd been admitted into the program, but I am scared to start because sometimes I think about dropping from engineering because engineering and physics are really hard for me. By the way, I originally applied to Chemical Engineering, but I was not accepted but they offered the other one instead. They say that it has 100% job placement and they give more scholarships than in other programs. The school I'm talking about is North Carolina State University. I hope you could answer me, thank you.
NC State is a very good school for chemical engineering. Is there a possibility of transferring into chemical engineering after you start? I think that the paper science degree probably makes sense in that area, but I would prefer to focus on a more fundamental/ traditional major like chemical engineering if possible. In my "only majors" video I talk about how I prefer older, more fundamental engineering majors. And yeah I think a lot of people have trouble with the math/ physics side of engineering, it's pretty much a math/ physics major in a lot of ways so do keep that in mind if you figure that might be an issue, and you struggle with those subjects. I think that with enough motivation, anyone can the engineering degree, but I have to acknowledge that some just catch on to math faster than others for whatever reason. I suggest taking advantage of study groups, office hours, and school tutoring. And please don't be afraid to take your time with math/physics/ engineering classes. Try to space them out and not take more than 2-3 per semester, the other classes can be electives/ easier classes. An engineer that took 5 years to graduate is the same as an engineer that took 3.5.. Anyways, best of luck!
@@EggsEngineering Thank you for answering. It could be possible, but it will be really hard and challenging to add the Chemical Engineering after starting Paper Science Engineering (PSE). CHEM engineering is a little bit saturated that, in fact, there are many smart people who are in the CHEM engineering major that also add the PSE to receive more financial aid and get internships. Around half of students in PSE are in the dual major program with CHEM engineering. Honestly, I feel that I just got lucky by getting accepted into NCSU, switching or adding a more "challenging" and already full major doesn't seem possible to me. By the way, I'm a community college student, I got my associate in Science, I already took calc 1, calc 2, calc 3, physics 1, general chemistry 1, and general chemistry 2. I am a little bit worried about taking Organic Chemistry 1 and 2 there, but also I am scared of physics 2 and thermodynamics. Would they be too challenging for me? When I feel fear of physics, I always think about how Ludwig Boltzmann ended, and then I feel more scared. I'm sorry for my long text. Kind regards.
@@Zhesack seems that you have the right idea. If you already got this far with your courses, I think you'll be fine. The next level classes are going to be a bit harder, but I wouldn't stress if you already made it this far.
Hi Eggs, just wondering how you generated the job data and classify to categories like that. I tried do one for my country but clicking to each job to see the company industry seems not very efficient.
Literally oil and gas is not going anywhere.. the plant my dad worked at didn’t shut down like all the other ones due to COVID because they produced an oil for plastic that apparently the world can’t live without
I’m looking to get into the water industry, specifically desalination. I’m in the class of 2025, though; do you think there will be more or less openings in the water industry by then? Also, what roles would a chemical engineer play in a desalination plant? Thanks, and I appreciate your videos a lot!
I think that water treatment will keep growing and will continue to be one of the best chemical industries. Chemical engineers can work in any part of a desalination plant, mostly focusing on process engineering, process control, and operations management.
Hi, thanks for video! I was upset about my choice because i want to be a pharmacist but even i am studying chemE i could work for a pharmaceutical companies?
I'm final year chemical engineering student I'd like to start my career path with food processing industries. is my choice good? for my career growth as chemical engineer? Please tell me...
Hi eggs, I’m an engineer in a plant including Incineration, flue gas treatment, turbine, wastewater treatment and desalination. This plant is amazing. I really gain lots of practical experience from this job. However, my mainly role is operation. I look forward to getting charted but I could not gain design, cost and project management skill from this job. Do you think it’s necessary to change a job for getting charted? Is charted really important for an engineer?
I have a bachelor degree in chemical engineering and at this moment iam really interested in getting a masters in energy or power and process engineering is it worth it or should i look for some better specilization
Hi, I applied for a BS in ChemEng. Do you have any information on the cosmetology field (cosmetics engineer)? My end goal is to work in cosmetics (R&D..?) but I am not sure if my major is the best one?
I can't think of a better major for cosmetics. Chemical engineers get into that all the time. Try to pursue research in cosmetics and find an internship at a top cosmetics company. You should start off with manufacturing for a bit then move into R&D from there.
Hi. I’m about to finish my BS in ChemEng this June. I’m really interested in cosmetic also as I’ve been a nail tech for 7 years. Though I kinda lost and don’t know how to start? Do you have any advices?
Lots of overlap. Most plastics are on the downstream side of petrochemicals, but as you can imagine there are many differences when you compare the two. Petro is all about sourcing oil and processing it, mostly a commodity industry. Plastics can be commodities, like milk jugs or grocery bags, but the most exciting side of plastics are in the specialty chemicals category. Plastics can also include specialized materials used in ultra light aircraft components, or medical device materials that aren't toxic to the body.
Hey..could u please suggest me some specialization areas for masters in chemical engineering as I m so confused....I am planning to take admission for intake fall 2022 in USA Plz help
Check out MIT Open Courseware, lots of great, free education resources for learning anything technical suck as different aspects of water treatment. Certs for water treatment really depend on what you're getting into and where you are located. I think that the best thing you can do is get experience in water treatment sectors and see what certifications are common for your colleagues. Also, certs are recommended after related experience in most cases
I'm a ChE student and my dream job since I was a kid is to "make medicine", and I'm planning to take Masters in Pharmacology in the future. Does Pharmacology equates to Pharma Engineering? Coz our country doesn't offer that much specific engineering degree.
It's hard to compare these two. There is some overlap but not much. Think about what you want to get into after school and let that be your guide. In general I think that industrial engineering is more systems/ business/ IT focused. Chemical engineering is more traditional engineering focused on chemical production.
I think the oil industry will continue on for awhile, but much less on the fuel side and more on the materials side. But, in theory, we're starting to run low on global oil reserves, so a lot of those materials will need more renewable replacements. Oil probably has around 50 years or so before it's kaput.
Do you think Saudi would allow not to use oil? Of course not. There will always be oil petro.. we need plastic and oil needed in plastic and in cars. Most of our stuff we use daily are using plastics.

I have a bachelor degree in chemical engineering and at this moment iam really interested in getting a masters in energy or power and process engineering is it worth it or should i look for some better specilization
I did chemical engineering in undergraduate and want to do pharmaceutical engineering in masters .
Hi, I applied for a BS in ChemEng. Do you have any information on the cosmetology field (cosmetics engineer)? My end goal is to work in cosmetics (R&D..?) but I am not sure if my major is the best one?
I can't think of a better major for cosmetics. Chemical engineers get into that all the time. Try to pursue research in cosmetics and find an internship at a top cosmetics company. You should start off with manufacturing for a bit then move into R&D from there.
Hi. I’m about to finish my BS in ChemEng this June. I’m really interested in cosmetic also as I’ve been a nail tech for 7 years. Though I kinda lost and don’t know how to start? Do you have any advices?
whats the different between plastics and petrochemical industry?
Lots of overlap. Most plastics are on the downstream side of petrochemicals, but as you can imagine there are many differences when you compare the two. Petro is all about sourcing oil and processing it, mostly a commodity industry. Plastics can be commodities, like milk jugs or grocery bags, but the most exciting side of plastics are in the specialty chemicals category. Plastics can also include specialized materials used in ultra light aircraft components, or medical device materials that aren't toxic to the body.
Did chemical engineer mostly work in office?
Hey..could u please suggest me some specialization areas for masters in chemical engineering as I m so confused....I am planning to take admission for intake fall 2022 in USA
Plz help
Any online courses or certifications you'll recommend for water treatment?
Check out MIT Open Courseware, lots of great, free education resources for learning anything technical suck as different aspects of water treatment. Certs for water treatment really depend on what you're getting into and where you are located. I think that the best thing you can do is get experience in water treatment sectors and see what certifications are common for your colleagues. Also, certs are recommended after related experience in most cases
Hi sir can I know which specialisation should I take in MS to land in a pharmaceutical company pls reply. ...
I'm a ChE student and my dream job since I was a kid is to "make medicine", and I'm planning to take Masters in Pharmacology in the future. Does Pharmacology equates to Pharma Engineering? Coz our country doesn't offer that much specific engineering degree.
Good place to be
That cat needs more screen time
Water industry is kind of the easiest for chemical engineer.
I really need to know better option ; industrial engineering or chemical engineering please help me out
It's hard to compare these two. There is some overlap but not much. Think about what you want to get into after school and let that be your guide. In general I think that industrial engineering is more systems/ business/ IT focused. Chemical engineering is more traditional engineering focused on chemical production.
but is he okay? seems stiff
I think the oil industry will continue on for awhile, but much less on the fuel side and more on the materials side. But, in theory, we're starting to run low on global oil reserves, so a lot of those materials will need more renewable replacements. Oil probably has around 50 years or so before it's kaput.
Do you think Saudi would allow not to use oil? Of course not. There will always be oil petro.. we need plastic and oil needed in plastic and in cars. Most of our stuff we use daily are using plastics.
There are many lecture videos about chemistry/chemical engineering majors on my RUclips channel. I hope it helps you a lot in studying.
What about toiletries and cosmetics ?
Yeah! Maybe on the 2022 update?
Polymers*
Lol oops, didn't catch that...
I want a Lamborghini:/
aw I like the cat in the background
