CHEMICAL ENGINEERING - WE'RE ALMOST EVERYWHERE!

People are always asking us, "What do Chemical Engineers do?"

And we always answer, "Just about everything."

Chemical engineers are involved in all sorts of things, from helping to destroy pollution in the environment, to designing huge reactors, to manufacturing household items.
