Engineering professional organizations

The above requirements are for all engineering programs. Each specific engineering program may subject to additional requirements developed by the relevant engineering professional organization. 

The professional organization for chemists and chemical engineers in The Netherlands. 

A nonprofit professional organization that promotes aerosol research in areas including industrial processes, air pollution, and industrial hygiene. Composed of scientists and engineers associated with universities, technical institutes, private firms, and government representatives. 

A professional organization of chemists and chemical engineers. Conducts studies and surveys professional and student conferences and programs administers grants and fellowship programs maintains extensive chemical databanks, online services, and more than 33 divisions and hundreds of subcommittees covering all aspects offundamental and applied chemistry. Elelps interpret technical data and refers citizens to local scientists. 

Merger of the ALEE and the IRE in 1963 into the Institution of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) preseiwed in its name a sense of the earlier bifurcation of the profession, but in fact the lines had become quite blurred and the numerous constituent societies drew and continue to draw from both traditions. At the end of the centuiy, the IEEE was easily the largest professional organization in the world with membership over 350,000. Its thirty-six constituent societies provided an indication of the degree to which electricity has pervaded the modern world, ranging from Communications and Lasers Electron... 

A second point can be made about the way in which uni" processes came into existence. The emergence of unit process is analogous to that of unit operations, particularly with regard to relevant social groupings involved in this evolution. Industries, professional organizations, particularly AIChE and the American Chemical Society, and universities are involved, as in the case of unit operations. This time, however, the process leading to the identification of unit processes is simpler because the disciplinary identity of the chemical engineering profession is well defined and especially because unit processes, as the name shows, are patterned after unit operations. 

Recent awards from professional organizations, the professional press, engineers associations and so on reflect the most up-to-date technology. Most awards relate to ... 

The premier American professional organization for chemists, chemical engineers, and other professionals interested in chemistry (http //www.acs.org). 

The Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences, the Royal Academy of Engineering Sciences, and other professional organizations scathingly criticized the committee s 1997 report Towards a Sustainable Chemicals Policy.7 Expert criticism meant little to the Minister of Environment at that time (now Minister of Foreign Affairs), Anna Lindh, who, in the case of the alleged dangerous properties of PVC, declared that she had more confidence in Greenpeace than in the Academy of Sciences. 

The K VIV is the professional organization of the academically trained Flemish engineers. It represents more than 11.000 members. 

A number of standard tests for adhesives and sealants have been specified by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and other professional organizations such as the U.S. Department of Defense and the Society of Automotive Engineers. By far, ASTM standards are the most commonly referenced test methods. Selected ASTM standards are presented in App. G. The properties usually reported by suppliers of adhesives and displayed in the technical literature generally reference ASTM standards. 

There is a question as to whether some of the professional organizations could bring more attention to the issue that we are losing a lot of students during these transition stages. This could be an area for further attention by organizations such as ACS, American Institute of Chemical Engineers, Hispanic professional societies, and African American professional societies. 

Dr. Seymour s personal qualities are not confined to the formal classroom, it is found in the research laboratory, in the industrial laboratory, in the continuing education of professional chemists and secondary chemistry teachers, in presenting chemical education through radio and television programs, and in his participation in educational activities of the ACS and other professional organizations (such as American Institute of Chemists, American Institute of Chemical Engineers since 1945,... 

The development of chemical engineering was the product of several diflFerent forces the need of an industry for specialized engineering talent the growth of curriculum through a definition of what to teach and a professional organization formed to promulgate, publicize, and maintain standards—plus of course de Tocqueville s insight on the development predilections of Americans as they strove to found an industrial complex. 

This chapter outlines the development of the technical, educational, and professional organizations that have culminated in the present associations. The parallel development of bodies regulating the practice of chemical engineering in Canada is sketched. Similarities to and more significantly the differences from the structures and practices in other countries are pointed out. References are made to some of the more significant personalities associated with these developments.
