Here’s what you should do. First, you want the professional degree, that is your degree should read BSChE. Not BS with a major in… So, stay away from all these hybrid degrees.
Stay general. That is process engineering. The American innovation to chemical engineering was developed of techniques to make products by continuous through-put, not batch methods. You’re going to get a second education on the job; specialize there.
Beyond that, you simply won’t know where you’ll be. Your job is an empiricist. You’re taking the microprocessor of a lab bench curiosity and scaling it up to a process that may be producing the curiosity at the rate of thousands of pounds per hour.
You’ll be getting your hands dirty. You don’t know how duck tape comes in handy.
Moving on, you’re going to be taking empiric into the field. How do you solve a customer’s problem? You’ll find yourself on sales teams explaining your product to customers. So, take a time to learn how to write well—expository writing. Learn how to speak well. When you first start you’ll be judged on technical skills. Before long those will be regarded as a given; how you communicate and handle people will be the real marker.
