2019 P-12 Educator Conference

The P-12 Educator Conference is back with an exciting new approach! The Pre-College Engineering Education Division of ASEE has partnered with the local public schools in the Tampa area to provide their P-12 educators with session topics relevant for their district. This one-day conference will take place starting at 9:00 am on Saturday, June 15, 2019 at Rampello K-8 School in the School District of Hillsborough County. The conference is structured with four time slots for sessions from 9:00-3:30, with multiple offerings in each time slot, followed by a Curriculum Showcase. Lunch will be provided. Please consider applying to present a session, or registering to attend the conference if you are a teacher from out of the area or if you are a high-leverage educator.

H. Scott Fogler Endowment, AIChE Chem-E-Car Competition® First Place Prize

To recognize Scott Fogler’s transformative impact on chemical engineering education, the AIChE Foundation has renamed and permanently endowed AIChE’s Annual Chem-E-Car Competition® First Place Prize in his honor.

Colleagues, friends and former students of Scott’s have established this endowment to honor his legacy and commitment to the education of students and the practice of chemical engineering. Scott founded AIChE’s signature Chem-E-Car Competition which has since been held throughout the world.

Scott was the 2010 AIChE President and is currently the Ame and Catherine Vennema professor of chemical engineering and the Arthur F. Thurnau professor at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.

The renaming of the Competition First Place Prize will be announced at the Annual AIChE Meeting and Student Conference in Minneapolis on October 29- November 3 2017.
