These changes are primarily in response to the need for improved economic benefit and competitive advantage. Modem organic formulations may be used, for example, to meet the demands of the customer for new cooling water programs that can perform under greater operational efficiency, or, as a result of improved customer education, initiated by both the service companies and their suppliers of specialty, organic, and formulatory chemicals.

With similar concerns, some academicians launched a particular syllabus for engineering programs, a conceive-design-implement-operate (CDIO) of products, processes and systems approach (Crawley et al., 2011). For some CDIO is considered the authentic context of engineering education. Since 2000 CDIO has been used and endorsed by an organized international educational initiative. The CDIO syllabus is based on 12 standards (CDIO, 2012) ...

Educational Initiatives coordinated internationally by the BP Educational Affairs and in BP America have been described, but no mention has been made about specific activities of our BP Research Center, recently renamed the Warrensville Research and Environmental Science Center. The center has approximately 700 employees (450 scientists) and is located in Warrensville Heights, a southeastern suburb of Cleveland. There are quite a variety of active educational programs as shown Table HI, and it will only be possible to highlight a few.
