What types of programs should I learn if I want to be a chemical engineer?

Aloha,

My name is Kyrstin D. , I'm a college student working on a Chemistry BS major, and I want to be a chemical engineer.

I'm currently working as an administrative assistant at an electrical engineering company, and I was wondering if any of the programs used at my company would be good for me to get acquainted with -- for, both, giving me more insight into how it is to be a chemical engineer and allowing me to have a more stand-out portfolio when I'm applying to be a Chemical Engineering grad student.

Thank you so much for providing the time to answer my question, and I hope everyone is safe and well during these times.

You need to get a degree in Chemical Engineering, I would switch your major as soon as possible. You could also complete your BS in chemistry, then get a Master's degree in Chemical Engineering.

Jarron’s Answer

Hi Kyrstin,
I am a biomedical engineer doing research in the field of materials engineering/biomaterials. I use a lot of pretty common programs. I'd say the most important are Excel, Python, and MATLAB. I'm sure this varies from job to job, but I think that learning these three programs is a great place to start. Python and MATLAB will help you begin developing your problem solving skills, and you can apply these to nearly any computational program/coding language. I hope this helps!
