Careers in Quality

About Us Ever eat an Impossible Burger, cooked plant-based chicken, or recycled a plastic water bottle? There isn’t a facet of modern life that chemical engineers haven’t touched. Chemical engineers have been part of almost every major development from plastics and fibers to unleaded gasoline to solar power and medicines. If it’s modern, chemical engineers helped make it happen. The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), founded in 1908, is a professional association of more than 60,000 chemical engineers worldwide.  AIChE fosters and disseminates chemical engineering knowledge, supports the professional and personal growth of its members, and applies the expertise of its members to address societal needs and improve the quality of life.
