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 />

both design and the<br />
technological aspects of<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 />
