Overview

Chemical engineers are responsible for the design, development, operation and management of the processes and plants with the minimum environmental impact. A chemical engineering background implies sound knowledge of both the engineering and scientific principles underlying these technological processes.

Career opportunities

Chemical Engineering is a growing global profession as modern industries require more specialists with a chemical engineering background. Graduates have a diverse and exciting range of careers to choose from, many with extensive international linkages.

Opportunities include chemical industries, energy production, dairy and food industries, petrochemical, agrochemicals, electronics manufacture, environmental health and wastewater treatment, biotechnology, and many more. A graduate of this Chemical (Honours) programme from Swinburne University of Technology may work as a field engineer, research engineer working on ground-breaking scientific research, or designer and adviser for engineering projects in engineering consultancies, environmental agencies and government departments.

Chemical Engineering also provides excellent basis for careers outside of engineering as graduates are experienced at solving problems and have good analytical and management skills.
