How difficult is chemical engineering?

Answer 1

As a university degree, Chemical Engineering is one of the more difficult subject areas as it involves knowledge of Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Maths, Management and Computing and completion of the degree is rewarded with the second highest graduate annual pay (second to Medicine).

Courses range from a 3 year BEng (4 with sandwich) or 4 year MEng (5 year sandwich).

Entry requirements in the UK generally require three A-levels at BBB or above. However, this differs with various universities.

As for a career in Chemical Engineering, due to the vast range of the degree there are so many different fields to work in, so it is difficult to say how hard a career would be.

Answer 2

Chemical engineering can be challenging due to its combination of complex scientific theories and practical applications. Students often need a strong foundation in math, chemistry, and physics to succeed. However, with dedication and hard work, many find the subject rewarding and fulfilling.
