What are the career prospects for those studying chemical engineering in design institutes?
Thread Content
I majored in chemical engineering, and I plan to pursue a master’s degree. After graduation, I want to work at a design institute; I’m not sure what the prospects are for working in design I would appreciate some guidance from the seniors. Thank you!
It's better to practice first before focusing on design :)
It’s good to work in a design institute in the chemical industry; although it’s tough, experience makes one more valuable as time goes by.
If you have engineering experience in design, it might be easier to get started! In my opinion, the prospects for the design industry are good
Hehe, thanks. It seems there are quite a few like-minded people in this forum.:D
I’ve been thinking about taking the exam to become a registered chemical engineer recently, but I heard it’s extremely difficult. Has anyone passed it?
These days, it’s very difficult for postgraduates without experience to get into design firms! Don’t overemphasize having a graduate degree; if you can land a good job (referring mainly to job opportunities, not benefits), it’s a good idea to start working first. That’s the situation in our unit; we hope to recruit postgraduate students with work experience! Replying to the person on floor 6: it’s not as scary as you think; after all, everyone has gone through rigorous testing to get there, but experience takes time to acquire!
What the person on the seventh floor said is absolutely right. When it comes to working on engineering applications, experience is very important, but one also needs patience and a willingness to learn.
It seems I need to visit chemical plants more often during my postgraduate studies
I realized it too late! I’m also thinking about this issue now!
