Chemical engineering at tech companies

<p>Would a chemical engineer be able to get a job at a company like Samsung or Intel and if so, what kind of jobs do they do?</p>

<p>I imagine they’d be involved in the actual process of taking the designs from an electrical engineer for a chip and then figure out how to actually do the processing of making the product.</p>

<p>Likewise they could do R&D on things like solder, effects of doping on semiconductors, designing new types of materials for memory (both flash and magnetic), etc. You could also look into Materials Engineering to get similar projects.</p>

<p>Let me put it to you this way. Chemical engineer Andrew Grove was Time Magazine’s 1997 Man of the Year for not only pioneering a number of chemical process engineering techniques and authoring an influential engineering textbook, but also serving as the long-time CEO of a certain tech company during its vaunted heyday.</p>
