Chemical engineers take chemistry out of the laboratory and into the real world by applying scientific knowledge, technical expertise, innovation, and creativity to make useful materials; without chemical engineering, things like fertilizers, vaccines, and antibiotics wouldn't exist in the quantities that are needed. With their skills and abilities, chemical engineers can be involved in research, development (taking a process from bench scale to full scale), design and evaluation (deciding how a process should work), plant design (deciding how a chemical plant should be built), plant operation, sales, management, and academics. The University of Utah’s Department of Chemical Engineering is nationally recognized for its research and teaching. In this program, students will complete courses in math, physics, chemistry, and engineering. They can also complete an optional emphasis in Energy Engineering. By the time of graduation, about 50 percent of graduates have found employment or been admitted to post-graduate programs that include law, medicine, and graduate school in a variety of fields.
