Introduction
Chemical technicians work in research, process improvement, product development, measurement documentation, environmental testing, and quality control. They help design, setup, and analyze experiments in research, product/process development, and quality control. They select and order materials and equipment, operate sophisticated instruments, and perform physical and chemical analyses on raw materials and products. Chemical technicians do experiments to obtain reliable data and use computers to analyze data and communicate information. They often work with other professionals to solve problems. The Chemical Technology program is flexible. It emphasizes fundamentals and practical applications to train students for immediate employment and prepare them to continue to work towards an advanced degree. Students will have the opportunity to participate in a work internship that will help them experience on-the-job reality and gain skills that will enhance their ability to procure employment after graduation. Students in the Chemical Technology program may be required to complete a criminal background check, child abuse screening, and/or drug testing due to their internship location requirements. The internship site will determine acceptable results.
