1 Chemical Engineers Madison

2 What they do Chemical engineers apply the principles of chemistry to solve problems involving the production or use of chemicals and other products. They design equipment and processes for large-scale chemical manufacturing, plan and test methods of manufacturing products and treating byproducts, and supervise production.

3 Examples of jobs a chemical engineers might do Manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, design and construction, petrochemicals, food processing, specialty chemicals, biotechnology, and environmental health and safety industries.

4 Education required in order to qualify for a job in this field of engineering A bachelor's degree in engineering is required for almost all entry-level chemical engineering jobs.

5 Average starting salary for an engineer in this particular field of engineering The average starting salary for chemical engineers who have earned a Bachelor's degree is $64,902

6 Examples of places this type of engineer might work  Laboratory  Factory  Hospital  Laboratory  Factory  Hospital

7 Examples of different companies that employ this type of engineer  Novartis  Pfizer  General Mills  DuPont  Dow Chemical Co.  Chevron  ConocoPhillips  Many state environmental health and safety agencies  Novartis  Pfizer  General Mills  DuPont  Dow Chemical Co.  Chevron  ConocoPhillips  Many state environmental health and safety agencies

8 Future predictions about the availability of jobs in this field of engineering in the future Chemical engineers are expected to have an employment decline of 2 percent from 2008 to 2018. It is expected to continue to decline, although chemical companies will continue to employ chemical engineers to research and develop new chemicals.
