CHEMICAL ENGINEERING DEGREES
----------------------------

 ### UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES

 Chemical engineering is a relatively popular subject. The typical major grants 6,156 undergrad degrees a year; 11,423 people last May completed an undergraduate degree in chemical engineering, making it the US' 42nd most popular major for undergrad students. 243 of those degrees were conferred by [Ohio State University-Main Campus](/colleges/ohio-state-university-main-campus), which boasts having the largest department in the United States. 987 of those degrees were earned at schools in California.

 180 schools across the country grant a bachelor's degree in chemical engineering; therefore, it will potentially not be easy to track down the best fit for you. Four-year degrees in chemical engineering are just 6.2% less widely available than the typical course of study, making it the 113th most broadly offered subject in the US.

 ### GRADUATE DEGREES

 While 80% of degrees in chemical engineering last May were four-year degrees; 20% were graduate degrees. Chemical engineering is the 67th most popular grad degree in the United States, with 2,893 degrees conferred. For context, chemical engineering is 4% more popular among postgraduate students than the average focus.

 In Total, 14,316 students received a bachelor's or higher in chemical engineering last May.

 ### ONLINE CHEMICAL ENGINEERING DEGREES

 88 of those 14,316 graduates (0.6%) received their degrees exclusively remotely - 14 undergraduates and 74 postgrad students. As you can see by now, chemical engineering is an incredibly unpopular online focus. It's presently the 204th most popular remote degree, and 97.1% under the US average of 481 students per focus. For postgrads, it ranks 146th, and is 88% under the U.S. average (616).

 The [University of North Dakota](/colleges/university-of-north-dakota)​ conferred the most online bachelor's degrees in chemical engineering in the United States of America (8).

 Furthermore, North Dakota graduates more chemical engineering online students than any other state (8 undergrad degrees conferred last May). On its own, North Dakota accounts for 57% of the subject's remote students.

 Just 0.1% of all undergraduate degrees in chemical engineering are completed completely online, (2.6% for advanced degrees). The [University of North Dakota's](/colleges/university-of-north-dakota)​ last undergraduate class contained a higher percentage of online chemical engineering majors than any other institution in the United States of America (0.35%). 8 students in their 2,231 student class received an online college degree in chemical engineering. They offer 18% of their programs online, and had 1,851 enrolled online undergrads last fall. That's 18% of the student body.

 There are 2 schools across the country with a remote undergrad degree in chemical engineering, making it the 113th most universally offered online U.S. degree. 1% of colleges handing out the degree even have a totally remote option, and only public institutions have four-year degree in chemical engineering.

 If you dream to study chemical engineering remotely, we suggest that you think about the [University of Arizona](/colleges/university-of-arizona), as it has the 97th best chemical engineering program in the nation. They also grant an additional 94 degrees online, so you can try out classes from other areas of study. Additionally, there are 2,558 online undergrad students attending, which is 7% of their whole student body.
