Chemical Engineering - New Jersey Institute of Technology

Chemical Engineering from New Jersey Institute of Technology is a Campus Bachelor Chemical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Chemical engineers use chemistry, biology, physics and math in an integrated engineering mode in order to manufacture materials and products essential to modern society. They are involved with the full scale of processes, from the laboratory bench to the pilot plant and eventually to the manufacturing facility. The academic training of chemical engineers provides a strong background for a variety of areas, including: Process Design and Development Pharmaceutical Engineering Production Engineering Research Marketing/Technical Sales Environmental and Waste Management Safety At present, chemical engineers are involved in areas such as producing more effective pharmaceuticals and more durable plastics, developing biotechnology, genetic engineering applications, and producing electronic materials. They are also involved in the more traditional areas of petroleum refining and chemical manufacturing. A chemical engineer may choose to work in a variety of industries, which include chemicals , pharmaceuticals, food, energy, and environmental control. A chemical engineering degree also serves as a good preparation for law, business, or medical school. Chemical Engineering Program Objectives Program Educational Objectives 1.
