AIChE’s Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS), in collaboration with AIChE Foundation’s Doing a World of Good Campaign, have teamed up with sponsoring companies to help develop new curriculum for undergraduate chemical engineering students. The goal of the Student Process Safety Bootcamp is to improve safety training of undergraduate chemical engineering students worldwide by introducing students to how leading companies across a variety of chemical process industry sectors manage process safety to prevent catastrophic accidents involving toxic, highly reactive, and flammable materials.

The Process Safety Bootcamp is great. I note there are no bootcamp locations for 2018 in the West. I also note that my alma mater, Colorado School of Mines, is in that region and is a leading university in Chemical Engineering, supplying many ChemEs to the process industry. Has there been any communication between CSM and AIChE on participation in the workshops?

Hi, AIChE did host a bootcamp at the CSM in April. Will likely plan again https://www.aiche.org/giving/events/ccps-student-bootcamp/2018-04-07
