The Chemical Engineering Students' Society(ChESS) is a student organization representing all of the undergraduate Chemical Engineering students at McGill University. ChESS exists to promote student life and learning--through developmental workshops and tutorials, academic forums, industry tours, corporate cocktails and end-of-year banquets.

Organizational Structure

The Constitution by which ChESS currently operates was approved in the 2012-2013 academic year. This official document lays out not only the restrictions and norms that the council follows in day-to-day activities, but also the structure of the organization itself. The Vice-Presidents primarily carry out tasks to fulfill ChESS' purpose, while U-Reps act as a direct liason between students and the society.

Our Community

Events are organized by the VP Internal, VP External and the VP Engagement. Fall Banquets are held at local Montreal restaurants, and the annual Gala takes generally takes place at an independent venue, celebrating the culmination of each year. Apartment and pub crawls are very popular, and are organized both as a Chemical Engineering specific event as well as with ECSESS. At the beginning of each semester, "Welcome Back" events take place, whether that be by offering a Fall BBQ for incoming students or a get-together at someone's house.

Academic Aid

ChESS provides coursepacks for the following courses:

Career Help

Each spring the Corporate Cocktail takes place, yielding a point of contact between students and prospective employers as well as an opportunity for students to gain valuable information and hone their networking skills. Industry tours are organized to local Montreal companies, and a group of students is sent to the CSChe Conference each year.
