Hello World! Welcome to my channel - I'm an American Chemical Engineer of about 8 years practice, who loves to discuss all things engineering - I believe in making very informative videos that answer all the questions (there were a lot of questions) that I once had before starting this career. I want to be part of a positive community, that focuses on all the awesome opportunities that engineers have to make a difference in the world today. This is a place to learn and grow with each other no matter where you are in your career journey. If that's something you're interested in, please subscribe and join the community!

Thanks!
i am currently studying for a BS in Chemical Engineering what degree do you have and how hard was it to get any tips
Can we get an update 😅.
Do chemical engineers work in shifts?
❤
I started as a machine operator 18 years ago...then was trained inhouse as die setter....from there I went to tier 2 die setter making around 50k ...I then became a start up tech working with the process techs after completing my pulsen class I was certified as process tech...I make about 68 - 70k a year depending on year I made 73 last year....I love my job I look forward to going to work because they depend on me two get things going .....also in my area there not many 2 shot process techs so that makes me very valuable..
Im starting to feel that chemical engineering would be a waste of my potential. This sounds way too trival for me. Thats disapointing.
Made my first mistake during my internship. Felt really bad I apologized to the engineer and supervisor. I will never make that same mistake!
Very well explained 😃 seems even more interesting than I thought.
Amazing insights! As someone who was working in operations but is now going into a process engineering role, it’s really cool to learn the slight difference and focus areas between ops and engineering! Well done on the amazing content!!
He seems to be describing a support role. I was under impressions with chemical engineering degree, I could start as operation supervisor at an oil/gas refinery and work my way up to Site Manager of the refinery…or are those roles reserved more for business majors?
Why didn't I watched this video when I had to choose my career? 😢
My presidential endorsers brother in law is a process engineer. I have obsessive compulsive disorder which means im illogical. Thats why peter tells me to leave the school and suggests the company fire me. Peter thinks i am too stupid to understand hes making fun of me. Peter thinks he is smarter than i am. Peter teaches God in his reaction engineering class. Peter believes God punishes people who do wrong algebra. Peters obesity is in conflict with the teaching of christianity that gluttony is a sin. This shows that peter is a hypocritical christian. Peter believes the school is persecuting him for the word of God and that God requires him to fail certain students.
Oh man, I think remote work is going to become more and more common and many of the hurdles you mentioned will be greatly diminished. Many of the hurdles are from people perceiving remote work as unable to do _____ and I think people will find you can do much more than a lot of older/old-school-thinking people think at the moment. I'm glad you didn't talk about the bullshit reason I hear all the time, that "remote employees are just less efficient and get less done." Fuck that. I'm about x2 more effective working remotely on the days when I work from home at my current EPC Process Engineer job. I could easily do my job fully remote and travel very occasionally (1 week/year) to client sites, and I know that especially because 1/3 of the team I am on is fully remote already. Yeah......I can't wait for the culture to shift and companies to realize remote work is awesome for them to save money and for the employees.
I hate being a manufacturing engineer. It's not a real engineering job.
❤
are american employers familiar with UBC ?
Hey can you make a video on chemical engineering vs chemistry?
Never got an intership tried so hard had a hard time building my career
could u pls recommend some books for someone with a chemE background but working in pharma/biotech 😊
Hi, Eggs. I'm a chemical engineering student at Buenos Aires University, and I'd like to know if you accept to be interviewed. It is for a college homework I was assigned that consists in a short survey about being a chemical engineer. Tell me if you're interested and I'll talk to you through the mail addressed in your channel! Thanks!
Hi! Im a grade 12 student who applied for chemistry programs but Im now wondering if I should have chosen chem eng. I love chemistry but dislike all other subjects. So my question is: Is there enough chemical engineering for it to be worth it?
Hi eggs! I graduated as a chem e last year and have still struggled to find a job, I don’t really know what to do as I have just been applying on multiple job sites. Is there any tips you recommend to finding entry level jobs now post lockdown
This is hindsight for me, but I would have applied for a lab tech(contractor) position right after graduating, gotten foot in the door and then either tried to become a supervisor within this plant on the floor, stayed in the lab, or applied for engineering roles. You probably have a chance of going to supervisor doing a good job and then launching to an engineer role. The point being you'll probably need to take a low paying lab tech role, to then have a chance at an okay salary as a supervisor gain experience and then launch to engineering. At all points you can and should be applying for roles that you want, but you are doing this to gain experience while you are chasing your real dream jobs...
I know the guy. He deserves to pay attention to what he say regarding CHEME. Glad to see him again. Keep it up
You're back!
I have been remote for 15 years -- working as a Product Manager. I agree need to have the baseline experience first (10 years in factory) and I had that before transition to remote due to job change, but needed the experience to get PM job.
what kind of projects are done in data analysis in the chemical industry
When I first started watching your videos, it was about a year ago. I was new to a marketing job helping scientists and engineers use statistics to improve R&D and production. The learning curve to actually knowing what an engineer does in their day-to-day work and what are the realities of their life, career, and wants was steep. You helped me learn what engineers care about and how they see themselves and their roles so that I better understood my customers. I’m so excited you’re back and ready to learn more!
I want to follow the same path as you. I like what you advise. I am in my first year in this specialty
Really good video eggs! I was waiting for you to mention the point at 03:00 because I totally agree; maybe at the starting point of a grad’s career, doing more in person work would be beneficial for them as it will give networking and promotion opportunities 😅 10/10
Great video! Welcome back!!! 😄
Love the video!! Hoping to see way more videos very soon :)
Hi, Chemical Engineer. A question: Do multi-vitamins and cosmetics sold in those dollar stores carry the same grade of quality as the same ones sold in major supermarkets? The packagings and manufacturer addresses printed at the back are exactly the same. And made in USA according to the manufacturing address.
welcome back!
Hello I watch you from MOROCCO I am verry happy to retourne ❤❤❤❤
Wow beautiful country, I want to visit someday!
Welcome. If you want to come to Fes, you are welcome at any time
Looking forward to more videos! I very recently discovered your channel and as a high school student who wants to do ChemEng, I have loads of questions so a livestream would be really great! I'm interested to know more about different fields and also more about what I could read/watch to learn more about the field and what areas I would enjoy.
He’s back! I was an undergrad watching your vids. Now I’m a manufacturing engineer! Crazy brazy.
Lol I recognize your profile, I was actually wondering how you were doing! Congrats on the job! 🎉
Can’t wait to see more engineering content!
Welcome back Eggs! Always great to have the chemeng content creators in the community posting 🙌 found out about your channel from Emmanuel for TheChemEngGuy back in November 2021 a little while after I started making cheme content, it really is great to have you back and excited to see what’s next 🎉🎉🎉
Hey, nice to meet you. I just checked out your channel, love your stuff! 🙂
Advice for chemical engineers looking to change industries? Getting mid-level jobs in a different industry and not having to start over?
Maybe some fast, not so time consuming editing videos with advice for future engineers.
Advice for engineers in their last year of undergrad in terms of academics and future employment opportunities?? Really love your videos and your advice.
Wow, great idea! I have a few videos on my channel about getting the first job, how to Network, etc... but nothing focused on senior year activities. Thanks! :)
Cool lightning in back ground
Haha thanks!
Like those pops 🎉
great explanation
Please would need a detailed video on Aspen Hysys( Simulation and modelling) as regards being a freelancer as a chemical engineer.
Such an informative video! I've been planning on going into chemical engineering but was never really sure if I'd actually enjoy what they do because I was never really sure _what_ they did... thanks to this video, I have a much better idea of what chemical engineering looks like and whether or not I'd like it.
Process engineers design the process too, mechanically and controls/instrumentation
Eggs? What kind of name is that? Chemical Engineering is 90% heat and material balances, fluid mechanics, equipment and instrument sizing. You’ll need to be good at thinking and conceptualising systems. Chemistry? You won’t do a lot of that. In fact, apart from basic stoichiometry and some reaction kinetics you hardly do any chemistry.
Not fluid mechanics 😭
