OK. My brother just cleared his exams and plans to go to US (I don't know what city or state, I am not very knowledgeable) to study engineering. He is qualified to go to college here. I mean if he were to study here (in our country) he can start studying here. It will take him 4 years to be an engineer here. I was just wondering how long are the courses there. What is the minimum age he can be an engineer. He is thinking of chemical engineering. I want to know what will be his age when he completes. Here we have a four year course. I heard there are some credit systems there and if you work hard you can complete your course earlier. Is it true, because here we have a compulsory 4 year course. Please tell me anything you know about this. I am not asking where to study because he and other factors will decide that. Also he won't work in the US later. I just need to know how long will it take for him to do a BS in ChE. All information is appreciated. Thanks

Its generally a 4 year course but if your brother didn't want to take any breaks it is sometimes, depending on the university, possible to complete your program in less time. Check with the university he expects to attend.
