Book excerpt: Excerpt from Transactions of the American Institute of Chemical Engineering, 1914, Vol. 7 Chemical engineering as an organized profession is comparatively new, although many men have been engaged in this class Of work since the beginning of large-scale manufacture. Since the organiza tion Of this Institute, various definitions have been given to outline the scope of our professional activities, many schemes have been suggested to improve the training of our apprentices, some advances have been made towards standardization in our engineering practice, a code defining the ethical standards of our profession has been formulated and adopted, and we have shown our aims, with some results, in constructive patent reform. Work of such a character is of the greatest importance, and is far in advance of that heretofore undertaken by any other organization in our field. It can never be regarded as completed, and the best thought and effort Of well constituted committees will continue to be given to advancement along these lines, with great resultant benefit to the profession.
