Chemical engineering is a great field in engineering. Over the years with the great expansion of scientific knowledge, the basis of applying science particularly chemistry to develop technology has increased tremendously. This has lead to the development of the profession of chemical Engineering. Chemical Engineering involves the design and maintenance of chemical plants and the development of chemical processes for converting raw materials or chemicals into valuable forms including those to remove chemicals from waste materials, to enable large-scale manufacture. It combines knowledge of Chemistry and Engineering for the production of chemicals and related by-products. This branch of engineering is a varied field, covering areas from biotechnology and nanotechnology to mineral processing. It covers various fields of chemical technology in mineral based industries, petrochemical plants, pharmaceuticals, synthetic fibres, petroleum refining plants etc. Chemical engineers design and operate chemical plants and improve methods of production. Eligibility & Course Areas: To become a chemical engineer one should have a graduate degree (B.E / B.Tech) or postgraduate degree (M.E) in Chemical Engineering. There are both degree as well as diploma courses. One can go for the 3 year diploma course after the 10th standard (SSC). The basic eligibility criteria for a BE / B.Tech is 10+2 or equivalent examination, with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Duration : BE / B.Tech courses are of 4 years' duration. Academic Programme : The focus of the BE/B.Tech programmes in Chemical Engineering is on Industrial Chemistry, Polymer Technology, Polymer Processing, Polymer Testing, Polymer Synthesis etc. The ME level course generally offers specialized training and research in the areas like computer aided plant design, petroleum refining, fertilizer technology, processing of food and agricultural products, synthetic food, petrochemicals, synthetic fibres, coal and mineral based industries etc. Selection : Selection to the graduate courses ( BE / B.Tech ) is based on merit i.e the marks secured in the final exams of 10+2 and through entrance exams. Entrance to the IIT's is through JEE (Joint Entrance Exam) and for other major institutions through AIEEE (All India Engineering/ Architecture Entrance Examination) OR their own separate entrance exams and other state level and national level exams. There is also the AMIE (Associate Membership Examination of the Institute of Engineers) which enables working people in the private and public sector, or diploma holders to acquire a Bachelor's degree through distance education for career advancement. Personal Skills : A successful chemical engineer must posses strong technical ability and high motivation. Excellent analytical, communication and teamwork skills is a necessity and the candidate should be hardworking, good at organizing and solving problems. It is also necessary to like working with tools, drawing sketches of complex things and operations, and conceptualising forms and structures. Good computer skill is also essential as they use computer technology to optimize all phases of research and production. As the knowledge and duties of chemical engineers overlap many fields, they must be aware of all aspects of chemicals manufacturing and how it affects the environment, the safety of workers and customers. Job Prospects & Career Options Since Chemical engineering is a vast field, the job prospectus and career options of a chemical engineer is varied and different. Chemical engineers play a key role in industries, mostly in the manufacturing field. Their work area varies from petroleum and petrochemicals to food, materials, specialty chemicals, plastics, power production, environmental control, waste management and biotechnology. As it is a varied field Chemical engineers could specialise in a particular chemical processess such as oxidation or polymerisation or in a specific product such as plastic or rubber. Besides designing equipments and plants, testing manufacturing processes and supervising production; they also study the properties and effects of dangerous chemicals, device process of neutralising them and also on the development acceptable substitutes. As such their work can be dangerous. Wide employment opportunities await chemical engineers both in the public sector as well as the private sector. They can seek jobs in areas such as processing, operations or manufacturing, research and development, design and construction, finance and teaching. They may also pursue a management degree after B.Tech and take on marketing jobs. Candidates with an additional management degree are sought by private industries. In process industries they could work in positions such as a supervisor or manager, technical specialist, project manager or project engineers. Among the manufacturing industries, pharmaceuticals provide the best opportunities for chemical engineers. In the government sector, chemical engineers are employed to solve environmental problems such as waste and water treatment, environmental regulations and recycling; on energy sector such as energy conservation and research on alternate energy sources and health-related research projects, defense establishments and atomic power plants. They are also employed in service industries such as scientific research and development services, particularly in energy and the developing fields of biotechnology and nanotechnology. Other work areas of chemical engineers include food processing, coal preparation and mineral processing, explosives manufacturing, chemical process industries such as fertiliser industry, including pesticides and herbicides, caustic soda, glass and specialty chemicals, dyes and dyestuff, paint, lubricants, steel and aluminum production. They are also employed in a variety of manufacturing industries other than chemical manufacturing, such as those producing electronics, photographic equipment, clothing, pulp and paper and even in the development of aircrafts. Institutes IIT's or Indian institute of Technology in New Delhi, Mumbai, Guwahati, Kanpur, Kharagpur are the most prestigious Engineering institutions in India. Other main Engineering colleges include Birla Institute of Technology (BITS) - (Pilani and Ranchi.), Delhi College of Engineering, Delhi., University of Roorkee, Roorkee, Uttar Pradesh etc and the various NIT's (Formerly Regional engineering colleges) in different states.

Re: What is the scope in future after passing 12th standard if i choose Chemical Engineering? The scope for Chemical Engineers is good in India. It is certainly a lot better than 7-8 years back when job scope was not that great in India. At that time Chemical Engineering were recommended to find jobs overseas because of lack of jobs in India. But as India is booming some of the sectors that hires Chemical Engineers are also booming. This has created a huge requirement of Chemical Engineers in India. The jobs are available for Chemical Engineers in MNS, Public Sector Undertakings and government jobs. Lets start with the Public Sector Undertaking. Here ONGC, IOCL etc are the top hirer for the Chemical Engineers. To get job candidates are required to appear in written test. Each Public Sector Undertaking conducts its own written test to give away jobs. You will have to visit official websites of the companies for more details about the exam like datest etc. It is important to point out that several Public Sector Undertaking companies have moved away from written test and instead they give job on the basis of performance in the GATE entrance exam. Therefore you may also want to appear for the GATE entrance exam. In private sector Manufacturing industry is the biggest hirer of the Chemical Engineers. The highest number of jobs are in Manufacturing sector. Apart from that other sectors that offer jobs are: Fertilizer - The Fertilizer industry is always in hunt for the Chemical Engineers. Because there is such a hgue demand of pesticides in the Agriculture sector, there is requirement for Chemical Engineers who can help companies come up with pesticides that are meeting all the guidelines related to enviornment and health issued by the central government. In government sector, there are jobs for chemical engineers in water treatment plants. Almost every single river in India is polluted and Indian government is trying hard to remove harmful chemicals from the river water. Therefore it has build several water treatment plants where there is an requirement of Chemical Engineers. There are also jobs in waste management field. Other sectors include Food Processing Explosive Manufacturing Cosmetics Paints and dyes Coal Preparation Pharmaceuticals |
