~92 Summer School for Chemical Engineering Faculty ~ ~

下一届化学工程系暑期学校由国家科学基金会和工业联合主办，由美国工程教育学会化学工程分会主办，将于1992年夏天举行。预计将有大约250名教职员工出席，他们几乎代表了美国所有的化学工程系。该项目赞助的暑期班的目的是通过促进化学工程教职员工和实习工程师之间的思想和方法交流，实现更有效和更现实的化学工程教育。过去的暑期学校促进了化学工程课程的重大创新；也鼓励开发新的教学方法和课堂活动。暑期学校的形式包括有组织的讲习班和全体会议。还提供了与会者之间持续进行非正式讨论的机会。来自大学和工业界的杰出工程师将参与组织和介绍暑期班。将涵盖的主题代表了化学工程教育的新的和新的重点领域。暑期班提供机会审查和影响美国化学工程教育的方向。需要在能源、环境、食品、生物技术、医药、微电子、材料资源等领域能够满足现代社会需求和经济需求的化学工程师。暑期学校的教学大纲就是专门为满足这一迫切需求而设计的。

The next Summer School for Chemical Engineering Faculty, jointly sponsored by the National Science Foundation and Industry is organized by the Chemical Engineering Division of the American Society for Engineering Education.It will be held in the Summer of 1992. Attendance by about 250 faculty members is anticipated, representing nearly every chemical engineering department in the United States. The purpose of the project sponsored Summer School is to achieve more effective and realistic chemical engineering education by stimulating an exchange of ideas and approaches among chemical engineering faculty members and practicing engineers. Past Summer Schools have fostered major innovations in the chemical engineering curriculum; the development of new teaching methods and classroom activities have also been encouraged. The format of the Summer School includes organized workshops and plenary sessions . Continuous opportunity for informal discussion among participants also is provided. Eminent engineers from universities and industry will be involved in the organization and presentation of the Summer School.The subjects to be covered represent areas of new and renewed emphasis in chemical engineering education .The Summer School offers the opportunity to examine and influence the direction of chemical engineering education in the United States. Chemical engineers who are capable of meeting modern societal demands and economic needs in areas such as energy, environment, food, biotechnology, medicine, microelectronics, material resources, and other areas are needed. The Summer School syllabus is specifically designed to help meet this urgent need.
