Chemical Engineering Education, v59 n3 p173-182 2025
Surveys over a 12-year period of graduating chemical engineers at a major non-regional university were used to evaluate key associations between undergraduate activities and obtaining a job offer. The undergraduate activities include working toward a high GPA, club participation, multicultural experiences, working as an intern, and research activities. Each of these activities is statistically associated with obtaining a job offer either directly or indirectly. Other job offer details, including salary, provide additional insights.
