    Why Learn Chemical Engineering?

    Chemical engineering applies principles of chemistry, physics, and math to design processes that transform raw materials into useful products—from clean energy to pharmaceuticals. It plays a critical role in solving real-world challenges in sustainability, manufacturing, and healthcare. Learning chemical engineering can help you build a foundation for innovation in science-driven industries.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Chemical Engineering

    Top courses include Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics 1 from KAIST and Chemicals Hazards and Process Safety from University of California, Davis. While Coursera doesn't offer a full chemical engineering degree, several courses explore relevant topics like thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, materials science, and process design.‎

    Yes. Many courses related to chemical engineering offer a free audit option. This allows you to access video lectures and reading materials at no cost. To complete assignments or earn a certificate, you’ll need to upgrade or apply for financial aid.‎

    When you have a thorough knowledge of chemical engineering, you can find work in a number of engineering and scientific fields. You'll find chemical engineering jobs in laboratories or in factories, as well as in multiple industries. Chemical engineers put their skills to work in the petroleum industry, the mining sector, and the pharmaceutical field. Municipal departments like waste management and water and sewer agencies also need chemical engineers. You can also help develop new products and materials if you have a background in chemical engineering.‎

    Some courses are beginner-friendly and introduce the basics of engineering and chemistry, while others are more technical and designed for learners with a background in math, physics, or chemical sciences. Review the course descriptions to find the right fit for your level.‎

    Yes. While these courses aren’t a substitute for a full engineering degree, they can help you build foundational knowledge, support continuing education, or prepare for graduate studies. They’re also useful for professionals working in related industries like energy, pharmaceuticals, and environmental technology.‎
