What does a chemical engineering career path really look like while you are still in school?

In Episode 17 of Find Your Flock, host Sandra Clavijo speaks with Dariya Baizhigitova, a chemical engineering student, about academic decision making, technical growth, and how coursework and projects shape long term career direction.

The conversation focuses on how students develop engineering skills, learn to communicate complex ideas, and gain confidence in their academic path while still leaving room for exploration.Dariya reflects on the process of learning chemical engineering concepts, explaining design decisions, and preparing for future opportunities in industry or graduate study. Along the way, Dariya touches on campus experiences that help ground the academic journey and make the path forward feel more real.
