Hello Anandhan,

Chemical Engineering involves designing, development and maintenance of chemical plants and processes. If you have had an interest in chemicals and studies related to them then you can definitely opt for this branch.

It covers the area of biotechnology and nanotechnology which deals with the mineral processing. It is one of the growing fields which involves conversion of raw materials into some useful products. It is a combination of chemistry with technology and principles of engineering to achieve new products.

Job Prospects:

• Working with Pharmaceutical companies
• Applying for Government departments like Water treatment, Waste Management etc through entrance exams
• Working in departments operating on Chemical Engineering methods to obtain the products is also possible
• Research departments also hire Chemical Engineers, since the availability of natural products is decreasing the need for Chemically synthesised products has increased which has resulted in rapid research in this field.
