Specialty "Chemical technology" (bachelor's degree). Profession Chemist. Where to study chemistry? Description of the profession

The most common entrance exams are:

  • Russian language
  • Mathematics (profile) - profile subject, at the choice of the university
  • Physics - at the choice of the university
  • Chemistry - at the choice of the university
  • Biology - at the choice of the university
  • Informatics and information and communication technologies (ICT) - at the choice of the university

There are many sciences that allow us to know the world around us. But the chemistry of them is distinguished by its special unusualness - a science that is on the verge of magic. Virtually none of the industries can do without the knowledge of chemists. But chemical technology experienced a real boom thanks to the rapid development of the market for finishing and building materials.

The work of a chemist-technologist is not boring sitting in laboratories. This is a real alchemy that allows you to discover new properties of long-known substances. And the creation of absolutely new compounds and alloys attracts with its unexplored nature.

The profession of chemist-technologist will become the right choice for those applicants who are not alien to stories about the transformation of lead into gold.

To get a specialty 18.03.01 " Chemical Technology", must be completed full course high school. Then you need to successfully pass the exam, given that GPA in Russia for admission to this specialty varies from 30 to 80.

To know what subjects to take a student, you should contact admission committee . As a rule, universities want to test your knowledge in the following subjects:

  • mathematics (profile),
  • Russian language,
  • chemistry / physics / biology / computer science and ICT (optional educational institution).

Future profession

Technologists of the chemical industry own different ways and methods for obtaining materials and substances by chemical and physico-chemical processes. Based on this, the main task of these specialists is the creation of new compounds, as well as their further implementation and application in industry.

Today, many areas stand out in chemistry: biochemistry, agrochemistry, nanochemistry, photochemistry, etc. It is important to understand that the future chemist must be collected and attentive, because the slightest negligence and non-compliance with safety precautions can lead to disastrous consequences.

In addition, this is an excellent staff for organizations involved in the production and sale of building materials.

Salary depends on who the graduate of the university will work for. At the beginning of his career, a chemist-technologist can count on a salary of 20 thousand rubles. In the future, experienced technologists receive more than 40 thousand rubles. In such promising industries as the oil producing and oil refining industry, the salary of a specialist can start from 60 thousand rubles. True, here it may be necessary additional education or an internship.

It should also be remembered that various benefits are provided for workers in this area in the form of early retirement, additional leaves due to special working conditions.

Benefits of a Master's Degree

Among the laureates Nobel Prize quite a few chemists. If a student demonstrates the ability to research activities, then a master's degree may well pave the way for this or any other prestigious award.

After completing a bachelor's degree, you can enroll in a master's program. In addition to the general educational cycle of subjects, professional disciplines are studied here in more detail, and time is allocated for research activities.

The holders of a bachelor's or specialist's degree with higher education have the right to enter the magistracy.

In most cases, chemists have to work in the laboratories of research institutes, metallurgical plants, pharmaceutical plants, chemical or Food Industry, mining and processing plants, etc. It is very important in the work of a chemist to study and observe the technique of working in a laboratory with equipment and all kinds of substances and reagents. Since as a result of the experiments carried out, new compounds with unexplored properties are formed, and safety is paramount.

On average, a chemist in Russia receives from 35 thousand rubles. Although dynamically developing, constantly receiving investments, industries, such as oil production and oil refining, offer specialists higher wages.

Chemists of engineering specialties also work directly at production sites and monitor compliance with production technology, control the quality of raw materials, materials, semi-finished products, finished products, are responsible for the marriage, identify and eliminate its causes.

Wherever a chemical technologist works, the essence of his work is the same: he develops new compositions with desired properties, conducts research and selection of raw materials and components, introduces technologies for the production of a new product and controls this process.

One of the most demanded chemical specializations is "chemical technology organic matter". The secret of its popularity is that a graduate can find application for his knowledge in many areas: the development and production technology of detergents (shampoos, gels, toothpastes), cosmetics (creams, lotions), medicines.

reference

How the science of chemistry began its march in mid-seventeenth century. Its founder is the great English chemist Robert Boyle. The scientist is the author of the famous Boyle-Mariotte gas law. Russian scientists also made their contribution to the development of chemistry. For example, M.V. Lomonosov stood at the origins of atomistic chemistry. IN early XIX century, chemistry became an independent science and was divided into inorganic and organic. Today it is difficult to imagine our life without representatives of this profession. Chemists are needed in the chemical, metallurgical, oil and gas processing, engineering, food and many other industries. However, whoever he is: a chemist in a control and analytical laboratory, forensic or forensic laboratory, the essence of his work is unchanged.

The future of the industry

IN last years there is a revolution in materials science associated with the spread of new materials - composites or complex inhomogeneous materials consisting of a reinforcing component and a matrix, which (compared to traditional materials such as wood, metal and stone) have increased strength, lightness, plasticity. In addition to plastic and metallized composites that have already become commonplace, glass-based composites are widely used. Through the use composite materials the quality of products in the aerospace industry, mechanical engineering, construction, etc. is significantly improved, and the possibilities of their application are expanding. In the future, "smart components" (chips and controllers) will also be embedded in composite structures, which will allow users to control the properties of rooms and equipment. This will lead to the emergence of "active environments" - work, living and learning spaces managed by intelligent systems and/or the user, depending on the required tasks or mood (for example, changing the color of the walls, floor covering, etc.).

Another major invention is 3D printing - the ability to print from specially designed chemical industry compositions of any objects, be it a computer board, musical instrument, weapon or medical prosthesis. Discoveries in this industry make it possible to improve the properties and stability limits of materials, mechanisms and structures. The development of 3D printing opens new era in production: it becomes possible to produce final products with properties specified by the customer.
