No. That's why chemical engineering is a degree. People with chemistry degrees should know the chemistry, but they probably don't know all that much about pipe bursting strength, or disposal of multi-ton quantities of waste products.
- palata 3y agoOk, I was not aware of that. Well, I don't know of any Software Engineering degrees. IMO software engineering requires basics of computer science (which you acquire by graduating in computer science). Then it requires a lot of experience (which is why I find it ridiculous when people become architects after 3 years in the industry). I see many "software engineers" who did not study computer science, and honestly many times they lack computer science knowledge, which makes their intuition a bit less valuable than a CS intuition (given the same amount of experience).
