Couple questions about getting a PE as a ChE. Currently Im working as a consultant doing environmental "stuff" (phase 1's 2's and 3's, water quality, air quality etc). As a consultant of course Ill need my PE to ever move up in the company. However my goal is to eventually move into a manufacturing job, I cooped in a plant and LOVED it and consulting pays well but just isnt what I want to do as my career. So my questions are:
A) Without practical experience in a chemical plant or chemical environment will I be able to pass the PE with a reasonable amount of studying?
B) Will the PE help me land a job outside the consulting sector? Or do employers which dont really require it just think Im over qualified?
C) By working in environmental for the next few years while I wait to take the PE am I hurting my chances of being able to change fields (from environmental to manufacturing)?
