Nairaland Forum

There is hardly any pair of disciplines, one from the sciences and the other engineering, which ever enjoyed a feud this long as that between students, teachers and professionals in the fields of chemistry and chemical engineering. Their day to day activities causes several shoulder brushing, many literature written to compare both disciplines, battles have been fought, unfortunately, a no-win situation recorded always.

I saw a very good article on this subject on a Nigerian Engineering forum and I thought to share. Both funny and educative.

@poster. Thanks for sharing. Critical reasoning mixed with with humor. But I still think Chemists are no Chemical Engineers match. Pardon me if I'm wrong

The problem chemists have with chemical engineers is that they think they know chemistry better than the chemists themselves!

I totally agree with you. The depth of Chemistry is with the Chemist. Chemical Engineers are not supposed to show some extra chemistry prowess more than they should show prowess in Physics, Mathematics, Biology and Economics.
