Chemical engineers contribute to all aspects of our lives. The food and drink we consume; toiletries and cosmetics we use; medicines we administer; fuels and energy we rely on; materials for our clothes, cars, batteries and computers - all created through processes that are designed by chemical engineers to be safe, sustainable and cost-effective.
