Chemical Engineering at a lower-ranked university — will I be disadvantaged after graduating?
Hi guys, I’m off to study Chemical Engineering this September at the University of Huddersfield and wanted to get some advice. My A levels didn’t fully go to plan and I ended up with decent grades, but not enough for some of the more highly ranked universities. I’m really excited to start, but I’m slightly worried about whether going to Huddersfield could disadvantage me when it comes to placements, internships and graduate jobs. For anyone who has studied Chem Eng at a similar university or is now working in the industry, how much does university reputation actually matter, and is it possible to get into competitive companies/schemes from a university like Huddersfield?
