In 2012, AIChE's network of Fellows initiated several programs to provide mentoring and career assistance to young members of the Institute. One of the newest of these initiatives is an online AIChE Mentor Center, which is now open for participation by chemical engineering mentors and those seeking them.
The AIChE Mentor Center allows mentors, young engineering professionals, students, and even seasoned chemical engineers seeking advice from peers to discuss job-related topics, share profiessional-development advice and lessons learned, and make valuable career connections. Participants register at the online Mentor Center either to serve as a member or to locate a mentor who will provide guidance.
