Chemical Engineers vs. Electrical Engineers

So today is the beginning of a several part series on chemical engineering vs. some other engineering. So the big difference between chemical engineers and electrical engineers is the really the chemistry level and some other classes for each of our majors. When you think about it, it makes sense we need more and harder chemistry since our major has the word chemical in it. The other thing that separates us is going to be pay. This may not seem like a big deal, but hey when you can get paid more, why not? The average chemical engineer is paid $63,000 while an electrical engineer is making $59,000. So not much of a difference, but There is a whole new field opening up for chemical engineers and it's going to be making some of them rich. That field of coarse is nanotechnology. Then again, where else can you find a job where you are to play with chemicals and have fun in and out of the lab.
