Session: Experiences in Teaching Process Safety

This session is intended to allow those teaching chemical process design to share their experiences. While all accredited chemical engineering programs are expected to teach chemical process safety, few faculty are able to develop a course based on their personal research or practical experience. This creates a challenge to develop an engaging course based mostly on materials obtained from textbooks, web sources, and short courses. By sharing our experiences, it is hoped that we can pave the way for those currently tasked with developing and improving process safety courses. We particularly encourage talks by those who are relatively new to teaching process safety. Discussions of opportunities for improving source materials or for integrating courses into the curriculum are also encouraged.
