The mission of the ASEE Chemical Engineering Division is to build and maintain a community network to inspire and support advances in chemical engineering education, outreach and industrial practice.
Chair Welcome
Welcome to the ASEE Chemical Engineering Division’s website! The Chemical Engineering Division (ChED) is a home for those engaged in educating chemical engineers who seek to pursue new, effective approaches to teaching and to conduct research in chemical engineering pedagogy. We exist as a Division to learn from, to support, and to advise each other by bringing together a wide range of ideas, experiences, capabilities, and backgrounds unified by a commitment to effectively teaching chemical engineering for the next generation of engineers.
As the current Chair of ChED, I would like to invite you to engage with us not only through this website but also in person at the ASEE Annual Conference. Feel free to share information about job postings or other happenings in our community by emailing ChED.ASEE.newsletter@gmail.com. We seek to recognize outstanding work amongst our colleagues through a robust awards program. If you have a colleague who is deserving of recognition, please submit a nomination for one or multiple awards. And our journal Chemical Engineering Education (CEE) is a premier discipline-based engineering education journal that, along with our Conference Proceedings, has global impact in disseminating effective and efficient approaches to our work. Please consider submitting your work to CEE!
All of your ChED officers serve because we want to engage with you and grow the chemical engineering educator community. If you have a connection to chemical engineering as an undergraduate or graduate student, as a faculty member, or an industrial practitioner, you have a place with us!
Feel free to reach out to me if you’d like to learn more about the ASEE ChED.
