Dear student,

Chemical Engineering is vast study which takes helps of chemistry, physics, biology, microbiology and biochemistry and even mathematics and economics to design and manage the industrial processes for the conversion of raw materials into valuable products.

By the name its seems that chemical engineering has only to deal with chemistry or atmost Physics and Biology, but i must tell you that Mathematics is one of the major requirement of Chemical engineering whereas other most important subject being Chemistry.

There are various colleges and universities that offers this branch of engineering and to get admission either you have qualify their entrance test or the admission will be based on merit list in which you past educational records will be seen.

Some top colleges which provide this course are also IITs and NITs which is the most premium institution of country.

I hope this answer helps you.

All the very best!!

Chemical engineering uses mathematics and science to develop chemical transformations and processes to create useful products and materials that help in society. It is one of the most broadly based engineering disciplines, creating high demand for chemical engineers across a variety of industries and professions. Chemical engineers devise ways to convert raw materials and intermediate chemicals into more useful forms. They develop products that are energy efficient, environmentally friendly and profitable. Chemical engineers make petrochemicals, polymers, microelectronics, biomedical devices, paper, dyes, drugs, fertilizers and foods. Chemical engineers are employed in the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, microelectronics, biomedical and environmental industries.
