About us

The virtual section functions much as any local section does:

• Hold monthly meetings to encourage the professional growth of chemical engineers.
• Opportunity for networking by attendees at monthly meetings.
• Serve our local communities, states, country and world using our hands, heads and hearts.
• The virtual section isn't limited by geography so geographically isolated ChEs can be supported.

There are some differences that make us unique:

Our vision: No Chemical Engineer Left Behind

What VLS is

• A Local Section with a charter and bylaws
• Monthly meetings with monthly programming
• Allow viewing of archived meetings

What VLS isn’t

• No geographic boundaries
• Supported but not tied to local sections
• We don’t want to be a second option for people to choose from
• We don’t want to be a second webinar timeslot

Our audience

• AIChE members without access to a local section
• Process Engineers who often aren't well supported professionally by their companies
• Young professionals
