Newsletter Article Submissions

We accept articles that are of a pertinent nature to chemical engineering, AIChE, or its membership. Format of submissions isn't vitally important - we can accept email, a text file, Word, WordPerfect, a graphic (.jpg format), MS Publisher .pub file, or combination.  The font or font size isn't vital as that will be modified to fit the newsletter format and space available. Content may be edited for grammar and to fit in available space.

We promote activities by organizations that are related to AIChE, if we are a co-sponsor or are otherwise integrally associated with the event. We can also promote educational activities by AIChE chapters of universities.

We would not accept an article that was essentially "free advertising." These might include information on a new product or service, employment solicitations, or CE courses. Such items are accepted, but as paid advertising space.

If there is a question about a submission, the Communications Chair has final say as to whether it goes into the newsletter.
