A question which arises almost all the time in the social media, reddit and Quora that do chemical engineering students need laptop? Indeed, chemical engineering students need a laptop because during their program they would need to use many simulations software’s and for that software they would need a laptop. 

Over the internet you will find a lot of buying guides about it such as best laptop for chemical engineering students, Our recommended laptops for chemical engineering and a lot more. But be aware that we will not need a sort of heavy laptop for it so go for an option which is a best option and don’t break your bank as well. 

Let me tell you some of the software which is going to be necessary and very handy for all type of chemical engineering students. First one is Matlab; This is a software without which I would say not any single engineering degree/program is complete. So, it is a sort of must software to have in your laptop through engineering degree… 

The second software which is very famous among chemical students is Chemcad. In this software you are going to do simulation of different chemical and elements, and get results of it. This comes to very handy if you are testing something which is not available or in the scenarios as well where you don’t have much chemicals to test but you have to sort out a very hard formula. 

Aspen is the third software which is actually too famous as well. This is not a single or individual software for chemical engineering but it has many collections of software which come very handy when you want to do and test different aspects of chemicals in your chemical engineering lab. 

Is Python useful for chemical engineers?

Chemical engineering is not done alone with that software’s which we just told you. Now a days it is the time of software, Artificial intelligence and machine learning so chemical engineers and all engineers need a laptop for their self so that they could do their tasks and one thing to mention here that all students need to learn Python and that is very important to know so that you could utilize that beast language in your field. 

I hope now you get it that how much it is important for a chemical engineer to have a laptop and grip among those chemical engineering software’s and programming languages like Python. So if you are aspiring to be a chemical engineer then don’t forget to buy a laptop for your studies and start practicing on all those chemical engineering software’s.
