Executive Student Committee (ESC) Community
Welcome to the Executive Student Committee’s website. We are the Institute’s only student-run committee, and we seek to help Student Chapters get the most out of AIChE. The ESC provides a variety of resources and programming opportunities for Student Chapter leaders. On our website, check out the ESC Officer Central to find guides, interviews, and other resources to help grow and improve your Student Chapter. You can also find on the website information about the Sister Chapter and K-12 Outreach programs and how your Student Chapter can participate in them. Receive the latest ESC resources and programming announcements directly to your inbox monthly by subscribing to the ESC newsletter
