- Education, Training & Career Development – lifelong learning to support professional and personal development
- Research & Innovation – investing in groundbreaking ideas and innovations that could address society’s global challenges
- Safety & Ethical Practice – teaching worldwide standards to minimize incidents and accidents to make our world more liveable
- Changing Perceptions – creating and educating the public about the positive impact of chemical engineers and their innovations
Examples of Projects Funded through the AIChE Doing a World of Good Fund
- The AIChE Annual Meeting is a key event for chemical engineers, offering significant opportunities for career development, networking, and research presentation. Over the past two years, the AIChE Foundation has supported over 125 early-career chemical engineers with registration and travel grants, thanks to community donors. This support aligns with the Foundation's goals of attracting top talent and fostering education and career development.
- The Summer School for Engineering Faculty is a faculty development workshop designed to advance the education, profession, and field of chemical engineering. As a joint project between AIChE’s Education Division and ASEE’s Chemical Engineering Division, this program strengthens faculty professional development and student success through research collaborations, networking opportunities, and more. Thanks to the Doing a World of Good Fund, we invested in the next generation of chemical engineers.
