Hi joypurohit!

The chemical engineering as a subject is very vast . So, it's scope is wide too.

It's demand had been increased from the last past years. Those who pursue this course from reputed colleges get hired by the companies like reliance industries, HPCL, IOCL, etc. 

This is a branch of engineering with lots of scope in India. The chemical engineers are hired by the private as well as government organisations.

This course is provided all over India as diploma(3year), B.Tech( 4 year) and M.Tech (2 year) is offered. 

Top companies like 

-Esar oil limited

-Oil and Natural gas corporation limited

-Indian oil corporation

They all hire chemical engineers for their company and your salary can go up with the work you done.

There are many employment sectors :

-chemical and allied products

-Energy( gas, oil and nuclear)

-Equipment manufacture

There are lots more fields open for you after graduation and have bright career options.
