I'm an international hoping to start my degree in Chemical Engineering this coming September 2012. Despite my good results my scholarship applications back in my country have been unsuccessful -- it's horrifyingly competitive over here -- and I am currently resorting to asking for sponsorships from Chemical/Engineering-related companies both in my country and in UK.

Can anyone please give me an idea of where (or how) am I supposed to start looking for chemical/engineering-related companies in UK? Where can I find a list of prominent chemical/engineering companies in UK?

What other advice can any of you offer for me? Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

P.s. this is the information that I have gathered so far. How do I go about from here?
