A group of department alumni and faculty, serving in an advisory and service role to the Rice Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering department, have been meeting since January 2009 to discuss ways to assist the department faculty, students, and provide networking opportunities for them and alumni.
The charter of the Rice Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering (ChBE) Alumni Committee is to advise the department on short-term and long-term goals, provide student mentoring, and coordinate alumni networking opportunities with the ultimate goal to prepare ChBE students for life beyond Rice and maintain engagement with the ChBE alumni community.
The ChBE Alumni Committee is divided into five subcommittees and the main functions include fostering alumni, faculty, and student networking opportunities, helping with the department newsletter, and mentoring students for career and professional success.
The committee works closely with the Rice AIChE Student Chapter, the ChBE Graduate Student Association (GSA), and the Rice SPE Student Chapter throughout the school year to coordinate mentoring and networking events and receive feedback from student leadership. Our focus is to help foster relationships between the Rice ChBE Alumni community and students and to help the next generation of students navigate life as chemical engineers.
