Hi,

Chemical engineering is one of the most demanding and trending branch in India, and nowadays even more demanding than CSE or mechanical engineering. There is a huge and big job scopes of chemical engineering in India as well as in abroad countries.

In India some of the major companies that recruit chemical engineers are :-

BARC, BHEL, SAIL, IOCL, ONGC, CIL, GAIL, HPCL, etc. along with other 21 psus, which you can only get by cracking gate exam.

There is a common misconception that if you are a chemical engineer or doing chemical engineering then you have to always play with chemicals, do the reactions, etc. Many people think that there is risk in becoming a chemical engineer because all the time we have to deal with poisonous, and very dangerous chemicals, which is completely wrong.

These type of things are done by sub part of chemical engineering, i.e, by the students who have pursued chemical technology. The chemical engineers get many great and good jobs in petroleum sectors, oil refining sectors, etc. and your job is to just supervise, make equations and new process with help of computer.

The industrial manpower work will be done by sub part branch (chemical technology) candidates. Also you will be having a great opportunity to work in an abroad industries. And for that you must have industrial knowledge. And this is only possible when you have studied your subject (or the core branch) chemical engineering.

In chemical engineering, we have to study about the techniques of designing instruments and we have to design equations so that the process runs smoothly. The chemical engineers find a way to increase the maximum output of the production by giving equation and process.

If you are a chemical engineer, then your brain will be used, your technical knowledge will be used not your manpower. And also remember : you don't have to deal with chemicals all the time.

And there is a very great job scope and also with a very handsome pay scale. Those who think that after doing chemical engineering the job scope is less then they are completely wrong. There is a huge and big job opportunities waiting for you if you pursue chemical engineering.

These are the only core and main chapters of chemical engineering that are asked in any national level exam like gate or upsc. And this branch is lot easier after mechanical engineering and civil engineering.

So if you study chemical engineering branch well with full dedication then you can get a very good jobs in major psus and also in abroad countries. And your job will be much better than job of cse branch or civil or electrical branch passouts and the job hours will also be very light and flexible and you will get a very good and handsome salary.

Employment of chemical engineers is projected to grow 9 percent from 2020 to 2030, about as fast as the average for all occupations. About 1,800 openings for chemical engineers are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force, such as to retire.

Hope this helps.
