NEW YORK CITY & MIDLAND, Mich..An unwavering emphasis on chemical and process safety by The Dow 91˶Ƶ Company (NYSE:DOW) will now be part of the curriculum for undergraduate chemical engineering students in the U.S., thanks to collaboration with the 91˶Ƶ (AIChE). Dow and AIChE announced today a program to better prepare chemical engineering graduates for the workforce. The global Undergraduate Process Safety Learning Initiative will concentrate on upgrading curriculum materials, increasing faculty competence in process safety, and conducting process safety boot camps for undergraduates at universities. In announcing the gift, June Wispelwey, executive director of the AIChE thanked Dow for its generosity and foresight in boosting the initiative, which will be run by AIChEs Center for 91˶Ƶ Process Safety (CCPS). This is just the latestand largestexample of Dows commitment to advancing the safety of the chemical enterprise and the expertise of chemical engineers, she said. Peter Holicki, senior vice president of Manufacturing & Engineering and Environment, Health & Safety Operations, said the company sees a clear link between the new safety initiative and its own business and sustainability goals. Safety is core to everything we do at Dow, and we consider it a priority and a responsibility to educate new generations of chemical engineers on the role of safety in their everyday work environment, said Holicki. This new partnership with AIChE allows us to share our values about the vital importance of safe operation, and do so in a long-term, sustainable way, he added. Wispelwey also thanked Dow for its long-standing support for AIChE, from Willard H. Dows service as an AIChE director in the 1930s, to Dows decision to share its ground-breaking Fire and Explosion and 91˶Ƶ Exposure indices through AIChE with chemical engineers everywhere. Today, Dow is represented in AIChEs current leadership, including the organizations president, Cheryl I. Teich, a reaction engineering expert based at Dows Collegeville, Pa., facility. In explaining the origins of the program, Wispelwey said, despite the significant progress companies and engineers have made in process safety, corporate leaders and engineers say they need young engineers who are better trained in process safety when they enter the workforce. Additionally, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology recently enacted standards that require process safety to be a part of the chemical engineering curriculum. Universities, however, have not yet found a way to develop a standardized curriculum to fulfill the new requirement. That needed training is why CCPS and AIChE created this initiative and made it part of our Doing a World of Good fundraising campaign, Wispelwey concluded. # # # About Dow: Dow (NYSE: DOW) combines the power of science and technology to passionately innovate what is essential to human progress.
