Employment Data

The Chemical Engineering Department compiles extensive data on our graduates as part of our own internal evaluation of our educational programs. Much of this material is confidential and inappropriate for public dissemination. The information on this page should be helpful to students, prospective students, and potential employers who are interested in the Chemical Engineering program at Penn State.

A total of 93 students graduated in Fall 2007 and Spring 2008. 80 students responded to the self-report job survey and 3 students responded during meetings. All of the data were self-reported by students.

We have done our best to verify the accuracy of the results; we apologize for any errors or oversights.
