Kaylee's Career Path
How to become a biochemical engineer
My Career Goals

I want to become a biochemical engineer by 2024

To get there, I will need to:
 Graduate
high school by June of 2019
 Get into post secondary
 Study chemistry, biology, physics and bio engeneering
 As well as algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus and organic
chemistry.
What is a BioChemical engineer?
Biochemical
Engineers Develop usable, tangible products,
using knowledge of biology, chemistry, or engineering. Solve
problems related to materials, systems, or processes that
interact with humans, plants, animals, microorganisms, or
biological materials.
What
a biochemical engineer may do in the day
1.design
work. They must conduct studies on cells, proteins,
viruses, or other biological substances to determine optimal
conditions for growth or inhibitors that can stop or kill.
2.biochemical
engineer will need to work with others in
process and product development.
3.responsible
4.maintaining
for documenting their work and their results.
data repositories that allow for analysis of the
various compounds worked with and the resultant effects,
engineers can use previous data to outline possible future
models.
About my future career
recent graduates will usually work with experienced
biochemical engineers and will receive formal seminar training
from their new employer. As a new engineer is able to gain
experience, they will be assigned more complex projects to
develop new designs.
 Biochemical Engineers earn a median hourly wage of $46.11.
Hourly wages typically start from $25.01 and go up to $72.52.
Biochemical Engineers earn a median salary of $95,900 per year.
Salaries typically start from $52,010 and go up to $150,830.

 Many
biochemical engineers work regular hours, and then some
to meet deadlines
My job has a 1-10% chance of becoming
automated
 Because it
requires original
thought
contemplative
thinking and
complex
solutions

Not to mention
you'd have to
create things
that don't exist
yet
BioChemical Engineering would be
great for me because…

I already have these skills for this career:

the ability to think analytically and solve
problems, an aptitude for science and
mathematics, the ability to visualize complex
processes and equipment, creativity and
persistence and a willingness to improve their
knowledge and skills on an ongoing basis
I am not quite ready for this career,
but I will get there!



These are skills for the job I
still need to learn:

good oral and written
communication
This is how I will get those
necessary skills:

Adjusting actions in relation
to others' actions.
Practice consult, and learn
through not be able to get
away from

Make sure I tell people my
adjustments and make sure
they tell me theirs
This is what appeals to me with this
career…

I can create things that will contribute to a better
world for the earth and its inhabitants

I can easily branch out to new jobs and I will end
up working with a lot of people in a lot of
different fields. So I will make connections.

CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY
These are some things I find less
appealing about this career…

Working inside

As long as I'm not sitting 24/7

I think that's it

Potential obstacles to getting this
career
The possible obstacles:  My plan to overcome
 Money for the education them:


My anxiety

Transportation


Working
Driving or busing
Potential obstacles to being successful
within this career

The possible obstacles:

Creative road block

Being insecure about my
abilities

My plan to overcome them:

I know what I do to get over
this but it's to long to write
here

Try harder
The training/education required for
my career is:

Bachelor's Degree in

Biochemistry

Biology

Chemical Engineering

Mathematics

Thermodynamics

Recommend (unstated level)

Physics

Chemistry
I intend to go to sfu for that career

515 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC Canada
V6B 5K3

BioChemistry

Bachelor degree of science

4 years

2,800$/1 year
Here is where I can get that:

High 80% average admission for most sciences

2,800
Financial Plan

I am going to pay for my program:
 My
family has put money away for my post secondary.
And I will be applying for scholarships as the type of
education I want as well as saving up a fair amount of
my own money

BioChemical Engineers are
awesome!!!

a biochemical engineer helped to develop a
recipes to make yogurt that contains live cultures
that benifites your bodies over all function

76% of biochemical engineers have a bachelors
degree 14% have a masters and 10% have a
doctorate

0.5% of the American population are biochemical
engineers
