WACKER Chemical Corporation Supports AIChE's Global Process Safety Education Initiative
WACKER has made a multi-year commitment in support of AIChE’s global Undergraduate Process Safety Learning Initiative. The Undergraduate Process Safety Learning Initiative seeks to ensure that every chemical engineering student possesses a working knowledge of process safety principles — an area of instruction currently underdeveloped in most undergraduate chemical engineering curricula. To accomplish this goal, the initiative taps process safety experts from industry to train chemical engineering faculty on the principles of chemical process safety as they apply to industrial settings. As part of the initiative, AIChE is creating new e-learning materials for the SAChE (Safety and Chemical Engineering Education) Certificate Program — which will be part of a dynamic curriculum that is free for all students and makes incorporating process safety into chemical engineering instruction easy and engaging.
The Undergraduate Process Safety Learning Initiative is led by CCPS, and is a core a priority of the AIChE Foundation’s “Doing a World of Good” campaign, which focuses on projects that bring chemical engineering expertise to bear for the good of society.
Imagine what all of us can do.
A Remarkable Year of Empowering Good
In 2016, the AIChE Foundation advanced its mission to make the world a better and safer place through chemical engineering. Thanks to our generous supporters we are demonstrating our dedication to doing
a world of good.
