CHEMICAL ENGINEERING<br />

TECHNOLOGY<br />

“Every day I get to work at the job I love”<br />

by Kirsty Creamer<br />

Chemical Engineering Technology<br />

Process Engineer, Durez Canada, Fort Erie, Ontario<br />

Graduating from <strong>Loyalist</strong>’s Chemical<br />

Engineering Technology program was one<br />

of my most fulfilling achievements. I<br />

learned a great deal about the industry<br />

from the faculty members who genuinely<br />

love what they do.The hands-on experience<br />

I gained as a student prepared me for the<br />

workplace and gave me an advantage<br />

over other applicants in the field.<br />

I was hired even before I finished my<br />

internship and now I’m in charge of<br />

technical and process issues for our most<br />

profitable unit. Every day I get to work at<br />

a job I love and learn something new.<br />

Although challenging, the broad subject<br />

areas that are covered in the Chemical<br />

program enable me to tackle any problem<br />

that is thrown my way.<br />

<strong>College</strong> years are truly the most<br />

memorable years of your life. While it is<br />

important to work hard, the social skills<br />

you gain in college also add to the<br />

experience and will assist you in future<br />

challenges in the workplace.<br />

“If someone’s interests include<br />

both design and the<br />

technological aspects of<br />

architecture then I would<br />

definitely recommend <strong>Loyalist</strong>,”<br />

said Mark Baechler, a graduate of<br />

the <strong>College</strong>’s Architectural<br />

Technology program. Following<br />

his graduation from <strong>Loyalist</strong>,<br />

Mark completed his Masters of<br />

Architectural studies at Carleton<br />

University.With his <strong>Loyalist</strong><br />

diploma he was given credit for<br />

four elective courses in his<br />

undergraduate degree, as well as<br />

advanced standing in two of his<br />

five technology courses at<br />

Carleton.<br />

“I gained a solid foundation of<br />

architectural knowledge at<br />

<strong>Loyalist</strong> before I entered<br />

university which really helped. I<br />

also sat on the Association of<br />

Architectural Technologists of<br />

Ontario (AATO) board as<br />

student representative,” added<br />

Mark.“Studying at <strong>Loyalist</strong><br />

allowed me time to mature and<br />

gain some life experience before<br />
