One of the main courses of chemistry major: mathematical information course
Mathematics courses mainly include calculus (some schools call it advanced mathematics), linear algebra, probability theory and mathematical statistics. Mathematics course is the foundation of other courses in science and engineering.
Physics courses, college physics and college physics experiments. Momentum transfer, heat transfer, mass transfer and other processes involved in chemical engineering are mainly physical processes, and generally do not involve chemical reactions. Learning physics well is very helpful to understand these processes.
Electronic Information Course This course mainly studies computer foundation, mechanical drawing, C++ programming (or C language), electrical and electronic technology, computer control principle and technology, etc.
Two: professional basic courses
Chemistry course This course mainly includes inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry (including instrumental analysis), organic chemistry, physical chemistry, polymer chemistry and electrochemistry. These courses are compulsory basic courses for students majoring in chemical engineering, which are very important for cultivating chemical consciousness. However, structural chemistry (or quantum chemistry), which is very important in chemistry, is lacking. Students are advised to study by themselves when they have free time.
Chemical Engineering Course This course mainly includes chemical engineering principles, chemical reaction engineering, chemical process analysis and development, separation engineering, chemical thermodynamics, chemical equipment foundation, chemical instruments and so on. These courses mainly teach the principle and equipment of "three links and one reaction" in chemical engineering, and the learning of Aspen Plus, a software for chemical process design.
What is the employment situation of chemistry major? At present, the employment situation of chemistry major is not very optimistic, but the future employment trend of chemistry major is still optimistic. Why do you say that?
First of all, chemistry is a basic subject, and all colleges of technology have chemistry-related majors. Chemistry is usually divided into engineering and science. After learning chemistry, I usually go to factories or engage in scientific research, but because chemistry will often come into contact with some chemicals, it will do me great harm.
Generally speaking, chemistry-related work has a high technical content, so there are also higher requirements for employees' technical level and scientific research level. However, for college graduates, they do not have strong working ability. Therefore, the salary of fresh graduates will not be very high, and there will not be many job opportunities.
And why is the future direction of chemistry major optimistic? I think the future environmental protection and biological agents will inevitably become the focus of future development, so if you devote yourself to chemical research, the future treatment and opportunities will not be bad.
