About Us
Chemical Engineering is one of the “BIG FOUR” disciplines of the Engineering Science, the rest being Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical. It is also the youngest of the basic branches of the engineering discipline. A chemical engineer works in a place like the one seen in the image above. They are responsible for converting any raw material to a finished product, may it be petrol from crude oil, synthetic rubber from rubber sap, tea bags from tea leaves, sugar from sugarcane, the list goes on.
