Travel to Attend the Second International Conference on Chemical Engineering Education in Cambridge, England, April 14-16, 1987

本项目为个人国际旅行补助。首席研究员计划参加即将于1987年4月14日至16日在英国剑桥举行的第二届化学工程教育国际会议。他应化学工程师学会（代表欧洲化学工程工作小组联合会化学工程教育）的邀请，在“工程教育的倡议”会议上作全体演讲。他的演讲题目是“规模扩大与安全——相关倡议”。PI一直积极参与与这次会议有关的研究和教育活动。在这次访问中，他还计划访问伦敦大学学院、剑桥大学和伦敦大学帝国学院。PI将编写一份关于会议和大学实地考察的主要调查结果的报告。出席这次会议将对美国有利。PI将提供欧洲和亚洲工程教育最近的举措记录；这些信息随后将分发给美国的工程学院。Kabel博士应美国化学工程学会（American Institute of Chemical Engineering）的高层管理人员以及欧洲主办方的邀请出席了此次会议。建议支持美国航空公司的机票价格为$860.00。

PROJECT DESCRIPTION This project is an International Travel grant for an individual. The principal investigator plans to attend the upcoming Second International Conference on Chemical Engineering Education in Cambridge, England on April 14-16, 1987. He has been invited by the Institution of Chemical Engineers (on behalf of the European Federation of the Chemical Engineering Working Party on Chemical Engineering Education) to present a plenary lecture in the session on "Initiatives in Engineering Education." His lecture is entitled "Scaleup and Safety--Linked Initiatives." The PI has been active in research and educational activities relative to this meeting. On this trip, he is also planning to visit the University College of University of London, University of Cambridge, and Imperial College of University of London. A report will be prepared by the PI of the major findings at the Conference and University site visits. JUSTIFICATION Attendance at this Conference will be beneficial to the United States. A record of recent initiatives in Engineering Education in Europe and Asia will be made available by the PI; the information will subsequently be distributed to USA engineering schools. Dr. Kabel was invited to attend by the top management of the American Institute of Chemical Engineering, as well as the European hosts. RECOMMENDATION Support for airfare on a USA carrier is recommended at the level of $860.00.
