Collaborative Research: Designing an Immersive Virtual Environment for Chemical Engineering Process Safety TrainingIntroduction & BackgroundIndustrial process safety incidents are unfortunately a fixture in the daily news cycle [1]. Inresponse to these incidents, universities are now required by ABET to include process safetyinstruction as part of their chemical engineering (ChE) program’s curriculum, specifying thatprograms must “include the engineering application of these basic sciences to the design,analysis, and control of chemical, physical, and/or biological processes, including the hazardsassociated with these processes” [2].

In order to rectify the current situation, the InteractiveLearning and Collaboration Environment, or InterLACE, project seeks to design a suite of technological tools thatfacilitates class-wide collaborative sense-making.
