Chemical Engineers are involved in evaluating methods and equipment
for the mass production of chemicals and other materials requiring
chemical processing. They also use chemical materials to develop
plastics, metals, detergents, pharmaceuticals, and food products.
Chemical engineers have an extensive background in physics,
mathematics, and other sciences as well as their strong chemistry
background. For additional information about the field of
chemical engineering, please visit the print and web
resources compiled by UCS. You may also want to explore
