All U.S. and international AIChE student chapters are welcome to participate and showcase their creativity and imagination through a 2-5 minute video that explains and inspires high school students and the broader community to learn more about chemical engineers and what they do. Each video will compete to win a Judges’ Choice Award or a Team Choice Award. Winners of the competition will be announced at the Annual Student Conference and winning videoes will be shown at the AIChE K-12 STEM Showcase Lunch & Learn on October 27, 2024.
The global reach of the competition will allow the exchange of relevant knowledge between diverse communities and will also enable the exchange of ideas on adaptation of process technology in different countries. This will highlight the impact of concerned technologies on societies around the globe.
