Chemically Doped: Award-Winning Scientist's Guide for Young Chemical Engineers

BEYOND THE CLASSROOM: RESEARCH, INNOVATION & THE FUTURE OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING In this episode, Aashish Priye — scientist, research professional, and chemical engineer — joins AIChE-VIT for an insightful conversation on what it truly takes for a young chemical engineer to pursue meaningful research and create real-world impact. We explore his journey into research, the mindset required to navigate scientific discovery, and the evolving role of technology in Chemical Engineering. From Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to the growing influence of Artificial Intelligence, we discuss how emerging technologies are shaping the field and what they could mean for the next generation of engineers. The conversation also takes us through Aashish’s experience as an award-winning NSF researcher, the challenges faced by young engineers entering research, and the importance of curiosity, persistence, and asking better questions. For students, aspiring researchers, and engineers, this episode offers a closer look at what it takes to move from learning concepts to creating knowledge, and from ideas to impact. Watch the full conversation and discover what lies beyond the classroom. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ EPISODE CREDITS Hosts Vijay Vyas & Sivapriya Pillai Featured Speaker Aashish Priye Scientist · Research Professional · Chemical Engineer Speaker Profile   / aashish-priye-00a33a14a   Guest Outreach K.O Shawn Paul Head of Podcast & HR, AIChE-VIT Video Editing Bala Aditya Special Thanks Aashish Priye ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📺 AIChE-VIT | WATCH MORE Explore more conversations and original content from AIChE-VIT.
