I'm curious if anyone has specific advice or experience.

I'm looking for things like benefit to society, interesting work, and skills that extend to other areas.

I know chemical engineers can work for most companies in the industries of semiconductor, paper, petroleum, chemical, biotechnology, metallurgy... anything I'm forgetting?
