Process design VS piping design VS process piping design
Thread Content
I would like to ask those with more experience: When working in chemical engineering design, is it better to focus on process design, piping design, or to handle both process design and piping design? If given a choice, would you prefer to work solely on piping design at a large design firm, or would you rather work at a smaller design firm where you can handle both process design and piping design? Would you choose to work solely on piping design at a large design firm, or prefer to work at a smaller firm focusing on process design?
First, go to the main facility to receive proper training and several years of experience, and then work at the smaller facility as a project leader or manager.
To do it, one must start from scratch! Starting with the manufacturing process, it’s also necessary to see which one generates more revenue!
It depends on one’s hobbies; doing what one enjoys is the most valuable and also brings joy
There is a connection between the two; both need to be learned*
Large design firms offer proper training, allowing people to learn more and in a more structured manner, whereas smaller design agencies lack such opportunities! !
Learning skills is all for working; none are inherently better than others. It’s unlikely to master everything, so it’s good enough to become proficient in just one skill. Personally, I think it’s a good opportunity to learn both process piping and piping technology, and then focus on one of them later on.
First, master the process technology. Piping is in the initial stage of design; it serves as the foundation for supporting processes and is of a practical application nature.
I once had the same confusion as the original poster; I hope that whatever choice they make, they will stay focused on it, and it would be best to go to a large design firm
Everyone is working; it seems like there’s no choice in what to do!
It is recommended to first go to the larger facility to receive proper training and experience; this is very important in the early stages of entering the field. Later on, one can consider taking on a leadership role in a smaller facility, by which time they will have acquired certain skills and knowledge, enabling them to carry out their tasks more effectively. Their salary and benefits will also increase at that point.
