Chemical engineering thermodynamics helps a chemical engineer to assess vapour-liquid equilibria of various materials. It helps chemical engineer to evaluate thermodynamic properties and how much heat is evaluated by a particular reaction in a reactor. A chemical engineer will also benefit to operate cryogenic and ultra-low temperature processes by utilizing his skill-set of che engg thermodynamics. It is also helpful if any propulsion mechanism is encountered in any process. The data collected for various parameters such as temperature,pressure, humidity, fugacity, enthalpy etc will help to assign stability and reaction operating conditions as and when required.

It is important because we need chemicals to help us do allot of things that us chemicals
An engineer with studies (3-5 years, depending on the country) in chemical engineering, graduate from a technical university.
Chemical Engineering in other words can be described as process engineering related to chemical field. When is engineering math required? A chemical engineer while designing processes, process equipments, etc. does a lot of complex calculations. It is only Engineering Mathematics which can help. When it is not required? 1) You can do everything on Computer. 2) You copy others designs.
The main difference is specilization. I am a chemical engineer myself, and we have the option of specializing in a wide variety of degrees, such as genetic engineering. Note that chemical engineering is a very broad field dealing with polymers, metallurgy, biology, environmental chemistry, and the list goes on. Genetic engineering, in short, is really a specialization of chemical engineering to specifically biological chemistry.
Agricultural engineering is the engineering discipline that applies engineering science and technology to agricultural production and processing. Agricultural engineering combines the disciplines of animal biology, plant biology, and mechanical, civil, electrical and chemical engineering principles with a knowledge of agricultural.
A chemical Engineer is a Jack of all trades but Master of NONE. Yes it is possible to have a Master degree in not only petroleum but also in polymer, atomic, energy, industrial engineering s.
