One way is to create and disseminate a compelling vision and strategy for chemical engineering, research, and education for the future. AIChE and the National Academies are working together to that end. In 1988, the National Academies published "Frontiers in Chemical Engineering: Research Needs and Opportunities.â Its committee of authors outlined a wide-ranging roadmap to turn promising research opportunities into reality, while calling for researchers to embrace new frontiers.
Since 1988, that has happened -- along with many other transformative changes like the Web, fracking, personalized medicine, and social media. A new nationwide effort, aided by international contributions, will address both the identity of chemical engineering and its future directions. Its goal is to ensure that the people in chemical engineering are primed to meet society's needs and rapid changes.
