What is the employment prospect of chemical engineering and technology specialty?

The major of chemical engineering and technology has broad employment prospects. Graduates can engage in engineering design, technology development, production technology management and scientific research in chemical industry, oil refining, metallurgy, energy, light industry, medicine, environmental protection, military industry and other industries.

Chemical industry is an important creative and challenging industrial field, with the characteristics of technology-intensive, talent-intensive and capital-intensive, especially in the 2 1 century when the chemical industry is developing in the direction of "green chemical industry".

It puts forward broader and deeper requirements for the cross-infiltration of knowledge and the mutual blending of industries. This major is a big major with thick foundation, wide caliber and strong adaptability to adapt to the development of chemical industry in 2 1 century.

Chemical engineering and technology majors include chemical engineering and technology and analytical chemistry, polymer chemistry and physics, material physical chemistry and other similar disciplines. Combining the unique advantages of biomass energy, new energy and green chemical industry, the discipline has established four discipline directions by continuously refining the discipline direction.

Among them, modern analytical testing and sensing technology focuses on chemical and biological sensors, modern separation and analysis of complex samples and their applications in chemical industry, nonferrous metals, environment, metallurgy, food, health, medical inspection and other fields.
