A part of chemical engineering is to construct plants for chemical manufacturing, means a lot of math, physics, mechanical engineering, technical chemistry, etc.
I think the oil industry needs a lot of chemical engineering. (Distillation columns, steam cracker, etc.) In Gulf region I think you can find a job.

So why / how did you select it as your major if you have no clue what it is about?

A mere 3 months into your major almost everyone is a zero.

If only all of Chemical Engineering knowledge can be compressed in a forum post.
