Hi dear friends,

I am studying chemical engineering.I am a sophomore.I am decided to get admission for master or doctorate in the U.S.

No my question is that what can a chemical engineering student study in graduate studies

Here are some examples I found:Biotechnology engineering-Nanotechnology-Biomedical engineering

I believe you will need to narrow the focus much more than that. If you're only in your second year, then your courses should still be fairly general. Once you get into 3rd and 4th year, your courses will become more specialized and from this you will see what areas you are most interested in. Then from this you can look at what professors specialize in this field, and near the end of your undergraduate degree, you can send them heartfelt letters (emails) about your passion for this area and ask if they have any graduate positions (ie funding).

That's how I did it anyway. In my opinion, it makes a big difference going into something you enjoy and are passionate about, rather that just going into a field because the prof has a position open.

Yes!That is exactly what I want to find:Which fields I am interested in?! But I do not know how to do it.as an example ,we have heat transfer this semester,but we study some stuff and solve some problems.so how should  I find whether I like it or not  ?
wha do you suggerst to do for knowing more about each field and relating issues of???

Something I've found useful is looking at the research webpages of the larger universities to see what work is being done is specific areas. For example, MIT has a webpage devoted to each graduate research group they offer. Once you see a subject there that might interest you, read more about it in your university's database.
I assume that you will also be doing undergraduate research of some form over the next two years, so that will help you establish your interests, too.
