Chemical Engineering is a branch of engineering that applies principles of chemistry, physics, and mathematics to design, develop, and optimize processes involving the transformation of raw materials into useful products. It involves the study of chemical reactions, thermodynamics, transport phenomena, and process control.

In Chemical Engineering, students learn about various aspects related to chemical processes, including reaction kinetics, heat and mass transfer, process modeling and simulation, process design and optimization, and chemical plant operations. They gain knowledge of unit operations such as distillation, filtration, mixing, and separation techniques.

Chemical engineers work on developing and improving processes for the production of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, fuels, polymers, food, and other products. They design and optimize equipment and systems for large-scale production, considering factors such as safety, efficiency, and environmental impact.

Career opportunities for chemical engineers can be found in industries such as chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, energy, food processing, environmental engineering, research and development organizations, and consulting firms. They can work in roles such as process engineer, plant manager, research scientist, quality control engineer, or technical consultant.
