<p>Hi guise, </p>
<p>I have completed second year in a Science program with Chemistry as my majors. It seems to me that there are hardly any opportunities available for me after my bachelors. Now, I am planning to transfer to Chemical Engineering. </p>
<p>I have been a strong student in Chemistry throughout my hs and undergrad. Could someone advise me how Chemical Engineering is? I want to know how hard it is? and how good is the career when compare to Bachelor in Science?</p>
<p>It depends on what you want to do. For a chemistry major, you will probably have to get a MS degree to get a “good” job. </p>
<p>The thing to remember though, is that Chemical Engineering and Chemistry are different disciplines. There is a very fundamental difference between the two, and this is reflected through the kind of work and research that each discipline does.</p>
<p>So just make sure that you know what you are getting yourself into before you make the change. Also, you may want to consider finishing your BS Chemistry now and getting a MS in Chemical Engineering.</p>
<p>I was thinking about MS before, and talked to different colleges regarding that. For masters I need to find one specialized research area and a supervisor who will be happy to take me. I emailed those potential supervisors regarding what courses should I be taking for a good transition to MS in chemical engineering. The courses they recommended are restricted to only Chemical engineering students at my college. Besides all that, I am more interested in applied Chemistry not pure chemistry.</p>
