Chemical engineers are regarded as the most versatile of all engineers. Their rigorous education in chemical and physical fundamentals, in economics, in mathematics, and in systems analysis uniquely qualifies them to seek solutions to problems which affect the future of our civilization. Advancement in the field can move along both the technical and managerial paths, and a chemical engineering education is an excellent basis for other careers -- law, medicine, information technology, finance, teaching, politics, or other branches of engineering.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced the selection of nine projects that will develop pre-combustion carbon capture technologies that can reduce CO2 emissions in future coal-based integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plants.
