Engineering

At BASF, engineers play a key role in the conception, design, construction, operation, support and maintenance of competitive plants and facilities. Competitiveness in the marketplace will increase pressure to reduce costs, take new products to market quicker and increase shareholder value.

Addressing this level of competitiveness requires a BASF engineer to both anticipate and capitalize on change. It will also drive the need for adaptability, flexibility, and the ability to work with people of different cultures. Successful BASF engineering professional will take on developmental assignments that will expand their knowledge and value to the organization. We recognize that teamwork, technical expertise, cooperation, integrity, responsiveness and commitment are necessary in the services we provide.

The engineering community is in partnership with the business units and operational groups to satisfy the outside customer and BASF's business needs. The ultimate measure of the engineering community's success is the long term operating competitiveness of BASF facilities. We also recognize that safety and environmental stewardship are key to our decision-making. The engineering community will continue to be instrumental in designing and constructing capital investment projects approaching a billion dollars per year.
