Currently a sophomore in engineering at a t25 school. I want to move to a large city after graduation ex: Chicago, Houston, SF. However it seems that one major drawback to Chem E is that many plants are in the middle of no where. What options/difficulties would I face if I wanted to live in a city?

Hi,

a) All engineering companies are in big cities.

B) My experience with US is Baton Rouge,Louisiana where factories are about 30 minutes' drive from City center.

I see no difficulty. Just make living in a city one of your job search criteria your senior year.
