The American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) is a professional organization for chemical engineers.[1] AIChE was established in 1908 to distinguish chemical engineers as professionals independent of chemists and mechanical engineers.

Currently, AIChE has over 60,000 members from over 110 countries[2] or 40,000 members from 93 countries.[3] by 2024 (sources vary). There are over 350 active student chapters at universities worldwide.[4] Student chapters aim to provide networking opportunities in academia and industry as well as increase student involvement locally and nationally.
