Educators should take advantage of the availability of professional chemists and chemical engineers, who can speak to the students either in class or in some special forum. Contact with practicing scientists can help students put a human face on a possible future career. It is especially important that women and minority scientists also play a role in such outreach to students, to show that indeed the profession welcomes all with the talent to contribute. Some of this effort should be directed toward the early parts of K-12 education.

The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AlChE) has helped chemical plants, petrochemical plants, and refineries address the issues of process safety and loss control for over 30 years. Through its ties with process designers, plant constructors, facility operators, safety professionals, and academia, the AlChE has enhanced communication and fostered improvement in the high safety standards of the industry. AlChE s publications and symposia have become an information resource for the chemical engineering profession on the causes of incidents and means of prevention.
