2017 Chemical Engineering Summer School - The Future is Today; July 29-August 3, 2017; North Carolina State University

美国工程教育学会(ASEE)化学工程部将于2017年7月29日至8月3日在北卡罗来纳州立大学举办第16届化学工程暑期学校。自1931年以来，暑期学校一直是新的化学工程系的主要教师发展研讨会。为了最大限度地为教职员工提供福利，该研讨会每五年举办一次。暑期学校的独特之处在于它强调培养新的化学工程教育者。通过在他们职业生涯的前五年瞄准教师，教授们可以在他们作为教育工作者的工作的各个方面变得更加有效，最终培养出准备更好的本科生和研究生化学工程专业人员。在2017年化学工程暑期学校，新教师将学习有效教学的最佳实践，包括主动学习技术。这些讲师是化学工程教育的领军人物。此外，学员还将学习技术主题(如安全、可持续性、计算流体动力学、过程建模和学科内的新兴主题)和非技术主题(如沟通技能、领导力、道德等)。从历史上看，大约有200名化学工程教育工作者参加了暑期学校，其中许多人是在最初担任教师后的头五年内，其他人则是作为讲师回来的。新的教育工作者能够与处于相似职业阶段的同龄人结成牢固的合作伙伴关系。此外，他们还与高级化学工程系会面和互动，并接受关于职业发展问题的重要建议。为了促进互动，参与的教职员工展示了他们在自己所在机构的研究和教育活动的海报。

The Chemical Engineering Division of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) will hold its 16th Chemical Engineering Summer School from July 29-August 3, 2017 at North Carolina State University. The Summer School has been the premier faculty development workshop for new chemical engineering faculty since 1931. In order to provide maximum benefit to the faculty, this workshop is offered every five years. The Summer School is unique in its emphasis on the development of new chemical engineering educators. By targeting faculty within their first five years of their careers, professors can become more effective at all facets of their job as educators and ultimately produce better prepared undergraduate and graduate chemical engineering professionals. At the 2017 Chemical Engineering Summer School, new faculty will learn best practices in effective teaching, including active learning techniques. The instructors are leaders in chemical engineering education. Furthermore, the participants will also learn about technical (such as safety, sustainability, computational fluid dynamics, process modeling, and emerging topics within the discipline) and non-technical topics (such as communication skills, leadership, ethics, etc.) Historically, around 200 chemical engineering educators, many of whom are within the first five years of their initial faculty appointment and others who are returning as instructors, attend the Summer School. The new educators are able to form strong partnerships with their peers who are in similar stages of their careers. In addition, they meet and interact with senior chemical engineering faculty and receive critical advice on career development matters. To foster interactions, the participating faculty present a poster about their research and education activities at their home institution.
