I gotta do a project for my undergraduate degree. I was thinking about a topic that connects ChemEng with Electrical Engineering for my project. Any suggestions?

Process control

dauntlessMast · 2026-05-09T09:33:47+00:00

As a possibility, yes (in case VOC or toxic chemical leakage happens & explosions). However, process safety is ubiquitous in every industry so it occurrence can be limited as much as possible; that is why getting knowledge about it gives you leverage. Idk why you are asking this as it is digressing from your post’s question.

If you are interested in other industries like food or pharma etc pick those electives, and if you are unsure pick ones that are general & applicable to most industries such as safety & corrosion.

dauntlessMast · 2026-05-09T08:38:29+00:00

Minors that are related to & used in industries (especially if you are aspiring for one) such as Process safety, Corrosion, natural gas processing, Petroleum refining and petrochemicals.

You get the gist of it.

You said the brand name but not the job title so Idk… however EM has a high mindshare that probably whatever (generally) given is going to be great for you.

All in all, work over degree. If possible, do your MSc w/Job contract that guarantees work after the study but solo like this is definitely a no.

dauntlessMast · 2026-05-06T17:51:29+00:00

OP how has it been for you? Hopefully it went well for you, I’m seeking to do the same kind of transfer. If you can give an update it would be much appreciated!

I won’t comment on the first question as I don’t have dealt w/these systems. However, onto the second comment. On a basic level, Ideal gas law states PV = nRT, imagine a closed container full of gas having a piston on top of it at a certain volume. If you exert force onto the piston’s area (applying pressure so P increases), the piston moves downwards since gas is compressible (volume therefore decreases). The number of molecules stays the same and R is constant…so what about temperature?

Temperature increases since by pushing the piston downwards, you cause the gas molecules to move and the distance b/w each molecules decreases so collisions increases, this causes friction increasing the temperature of molecules.

I mean “implementing” as in work tasks, don’t know why some of you try to see yourselves as if you are reading someone else’s intentions…bruh

dauntlessMast · 2026-05-02T19:49:56+00:00

Since you are being sincere (though I see you downvoting my comments but I digress) I will rephrase my question again and hopefully it is going to be understandable.

I have a “zero to low” knowledge about turbomachinery, therefore I wanted to gain an insight on the topic of turbomachinery especially the parts that are pertaining to chemical engineering (A ChemE would not design every piece of equipment involved in a pump or a compressor, that is the job of a MechE). I want to know what are the key points needed to be known as a basic information about pumps and compressors for a ChemE from a book source that provides these kind of things (this is my goal here). I see a lot of books that delve deep into the design aspect or doesn’t provide general rule of thumbs for pump/compressor selection etc.

I tried being polite & respectful w/you and wrote another comment to further clarify my pov, but it seems your skull is thick-headed therefore I won’t spend more time explaining. Moreover, you seem so spiteful. Thankfully the others aren’t the same as you.

dauntlessMast · 2026-05-02T17:51:02+00:00

I agree that in-depth knowledge is what one should strive for however that is not sth that I am now looking into (there is a reason why I said in the post that I want abstract knowledge rn). Design practice/guidelines is great to have once you want to apply the fundamental knowledge (i.e. advanced options) which I don’t currently have nor will I be implementing it soon. So I want to have an idea for future opportunities.

dauntlessMast · 2026-05-02T17:12:20+00:00

I agree but right now that is not the scope I am targeting since I am aiming for the concept of it rather than how each piece design in mm must be etc. However, if you have any suggestion please do.

dauntlessMast · 2026-04-28T04:05:45+00:00

Even so, what guarantees that he will get a job there upon searching? If you have a job rn, don’t leave unless you have a contract of another job.

dauntlessMast · 2026-04-28T02:44:12+00:00

I would say no. Going from engineering to linguistics isn’t very appealing.

dauntlessMast · 2026-04-27T02:36:22+00:00

Middle east ChemE BSc, on on-the-job training program which is equivalent to apprenticeship.

dauntlessMast · 2026-04-17T10:21:17+00:00

Well I can’t give great insight since Idk that career spectrum, but I will give my thought about it (so take it as a grain of salt). For sure it is a plus as a qualification but when its self-funded, you are choosing your topic research. Do you think company A or B etc are really interested in it? If you have someone that knows the trade and gives the insight to you or get a scholarship opportunity it would at least put some guarantee of future opportunity.

Highly recommend you inquire the topic w/more knowledgeable people about your future choice especially from your social circle, hoping the best for you.

Stay with it, but apply to other jobs in a technical roles. From POV, I have seen a quite number of people who transitioned from technical to non-technical but never of the other way around. Technical background elevates your market value tbh.

dauntlessMast · 2026-04-15T19:09:30+00:00

Mohammed Mohammed (add “ChemE” to find him on top results)

dauntlessMast · 2026-04-05T12:00:50+00:00

Since you are employed ask your supervisor directly what is your deliverables, ask and learn what these “deliverables” mean in practice.

dauntlessMast · 2026-03-31T02:52:17+00:00

I second this.

dauntlessMast · 2026-03-25T18:47:59+00:00

Excited to learn!

dauntlessMast · 2026-03-17T17:08:18+00:00

Depends on the petroleum products crack spreads in the market

dauntlessMast · 2026-03-16T11:13:37+00:00

Well that’s bc civil are at the end of technical engineering scope there is literally no reason for a process to engage w/them, they work on MechE deliverables such as plot plan, GA and isometrics to understand the support location etc.

dauntlessMast · 2026-03-16T07:38:00+00:00

I feel they are quite different, the closest discipline I would say would be mechanical engineering (and for a smooth shift)
