American Institute of Chemical Engineers
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) is a professional organization for chemical engineers. AIChE was established in 1908 with the purpose of establishing chemical engineers as a profession independent from chemists and mechanical engineers. As of 2005, AIChE had about 40,000 members, many of them from outside of the United States. Student chapters at various univeristies around the world have also been established throughout its history. The student chapters tend to focus on providing networking opportunities in both academia and in industry as well as increasing student involvement locally and nationally.
