Dr. Joseph Cramer's Interview with My Footpath

My Footpath recently conduced an interview with AIChE's Director of Technical Programing, Dr. Joseph Cramer. My Footpath is a Website that helps navigate the often confusing world of careers by providing resources about the best schools by degree, graduate degree information, volunteer information, and career choices.

Here's a bit about Dr. Cramer's initial interests in high school:

"In high school, I couldn't decide between becoming a physicist or a chemical engineer," he says. "I don't exactly remember why, but I picked chemical engineering. I liked it, so I stayed.

What's it like being a chemical engineer? Via My Footpath:

"All chemical engineers put in long hours, but we are pretty well compensated and professionally respected. Chemical engineers can expect to do a lot of international work, too. I receive emails from all over the world with engineering questions. It's not a 9 to 5 job. It's tough and demanding, but also extremely rewarding and satisfying on a professional level."
