We hold many events during the school year geared towards informing chemical engineers. These include company info sessions, a student-faculty dinner, the track talk, and a graduate school panel. We also provide “Student-to-Student” and “Industry-Student” mentoring programs. Being part of Caltech AIChE also lets you become a member of National AIChE for free.
After college, ChE’s pursue a wide variety of options, from grad school to national labs to industry. In industry, students work for pharmaceutical, semiconductor, environmental, oil, consulting, and materials companies.
It is a good idea for freshmen to plan out their schedules for all four years if they want to be ChE due to the large number of requirements. This will save trouble down the road. Consult the Caltech Catalog available at the registrar’s website or an upperclassman for help.
Come to our track talk in the spring or ask an upperclassman.
Come to the club fair at the beginning of the year and talk to current ChE’s. Also sign up for our mailing list so that you can receive emails about our general meetings. You can also try contacting us by email.
