Chemical Engineer
Chemical engineers apply chemistry to design and develop chemicals and biochemicals. They develop the equipment and processes needed for chemical production and test chemicals to determine side effects. Chemical engineers are also involved with the design and production of new sources of energy, clothing, food, paper, and electronic goods such as televisions and radios. They can work in biotechnology or health care. Chemical engineers apply their knowledge of physics, math, chemistry, and electrical and mechanical engineering to complete their work. They can specialize in a specific field, for example, nanomaterials, or a specific chemistry principle, such as oxidation. Chemical engineers must be aware of how chemicals affect human health and the environment.
