Chemical Engineering: Challenges and Opportunities in the 21st Century

Completed

This three year study will outline an ambitious vision to guide chemical engineering research, innovation, and education for the next 30 years. A broad representation of the chemical engineering community will provide the study team with input on the current state of the profession and where growth is needed.

Our study will cover several areas, including chemical engineering undergraduate and graduate education, promising intellectual and investment opportunities, and potential economic and national needs. The final report will provide guidance to funders, researchers, educators, and industry professionals. Our recommendations will focus on science needs and priorities.
