Personal future plans for those majoring in chemical engineering

Hello everyone, I am a graduate student in chemical engineering who graduated in 2009; my undergraduate major was chemical engineering and technology. I have just started working and am a bit lost about my future. I would like to ask some questions regarding the evaluation of engineers: 1. Can one be rated as an assistant engineer one year after graduating from graduate school? What procedures are required? 2. I want to obtain a certificate related to chemical engineering, but I know very little about it. Could you give some advice to help me avoid unnecessary detours? Thanks.
1. It seems to be half a year; the procedures aren’t very clear. 2. I’m currently applying to become a registered chemical engineer, and I can take the exam
Register for the Basic Chemical Engineering exam; you can take it right after graduation
Becoming a registered chemical engineer is a viable option. Those who have just graduated from graduate school can take the basic examination, but they have to wait two years before they can take the specialized examination
When engineers make assessments, it relates to matters within their own units, and is determined in accordance with the management regulations of each unit
Combining theory with practical work, and communicating more with colleagues and peers will be of great help to you! Wishing the original poster success in their studies and achievements!
One can take the exam to become a registered chemical engineer; it is possible to take this exam right after completing a master’s degree, and there are also much fewer time restrictions regarding the professional exams.
Production front line — Registered engineer — Design institute — Management level
The original poster can read the following content carefully: http://baike.baidu.com/view/436850.htm. Due to its length, no further details will be provided. I’d like to remind the original poster that some of the statements above seem to be inconsistent; please take a look.
I also majored in chemical engineering and technology, but only at the undergraduate level. I am currently working at CNPC; I’ve been there for just one year now, and I have recently been promoted to the position of assistant engineer. I also want to become a certified chemical engineer. I really enjoy doing design-related work, and I hope to be able to do what I love in the future, rather than having to work shifts as I do now.
Note: The Certified Chemical Engineer designation is intended for those who work in design. If you only work in factories or in research, this certification is completely unnecessary. Moreover, one can obtain the certificate only after passing both the basic and specialized exams; however, one is not allowed to take the specialized exam until 5 years have passed since starting work in design
