ChESS is an updated program that provides chemical engineering student support by corporate partners. This strategic program supports our up-and-coming ChemEs while offering companies a unique opportunity to connect with and mentor undergraduate bio, process, and chemical engineering students.
Our ChESS sponsors help enrich the next generation of chemical engineers, subsidizing AIChE student memberships and enabling undergraduates to take advantage of all that AIChE has to offer for free. AIChE acknowledges the following generous sponsors for supporting ChESS!
