Women in Chemical Engineering (WIC) Travel Award

WIC supports travel for graduate students, post-doctoral associates, early career individuals, and young professionals. Award winners will receive complimentary registration to the 2025 AIChE Annual Meeting, 1 year of complimentary AIChE membership, and $800 towards travel expenses to San Diego, CA (e.g., hotel, airfare, meals, and incidentals).

Travel award winners are selected based on the merit of application materials and the potential impact of the award (e.g., applicants applying for positions at the time of the meeting will be prioritized). We highly encourage applications from underrepresented groups. To further promote inclusivity among the travel award winners, we will award only one applicant per research group. Therefore, we recommend each group only submit one nomination.

Travel award winners will be notified ahead of the early conference registration deadline. The conference attendees will be required to present a poster highlighting their work at the WIC breakfast and keynote.
