I always wented to do some engineering study. But I couldn't decide which one, so I first choose which university I wanted to attend and then looked around which study was the broadest to postpone a choice a bit more. And chemical engineering pretty much is one of the broadest studies possible. I mean, if I wanted I could do my final thesis in the Process Control group and be researching computerized control systems that run on one of those big Honeywells. They actually have a bunch of computer science students doing that as well. Or write some simulation program for a nuclear reactor at the nuclear chemistry group :) But I have pretty much come to the conclusion that it is all the same anyway. Find the problem, analyse it, find a solution, implement the solution. That I have received some formal training in how to read a flowchart of an oil refinery makes reading that easier, but also the reading of a flowchart of a computer program. And, to be honest, I am not impressed by most of the computer science students here. So I am now working on the development of new silicone formulations for medical applications. And I like it. The medical side puts some perspective on what is really important.
