As a faculty advisor for a local AIChE student chapter for over twenty-three years, I have enjoyed seeing the energy and enthusiasm built around attending student conferences. But why should I let YOU attend the national AIChE student conference?

Each year, the AIChE Annual Meeting focuses on academia topics and this year the Young Professional Committee will explore several advanced degrees options. Whether you are interested in technical research or a business track, there will be a session available for you.

On Sunday, October 28, from 8 pm to 11 pm, the Young Professionals Committee (YPC) and the Societal Impact Operating Council (SIOC) will be sponsoring a social event for both YPC and SIOC groups.

...calling for your papers, that is. The 35th Industrial Energy Technology Conference (IETC) is soliciting technical papers for its conference to be held May 21–24, 2013, in New Orleans, LA.

To help young engineers make the transition from academic success to a thriving career and make the most of important early work years, Todd Willman will be speaking to the YPs at 8:00 pm EDT.

Want to navigate the solar system without having to buy that expensive spacecraft? Jon Nguyen demos Eyes on the Solar System, free-to-use software from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory that was create for exploring the planets, moons, asteroids, and spacecraft that rotate around our sun in real-time.

Congratulations to Eleftherios Terry Papoutaskis for being the recipient of this year’s James E. Bailey Award. Read more about his work and upcoming lecture at the Annual Meeting.
