[[File:ChESS20192020.jpg|thumb|ChESS Council, 2020-2021]]
==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' s purpose, while U-Reps act as a direct liaison between students and the society.

* Blues Pub: two annually in the McConnell Basement with the purpose of raising funds for ChESS
* Corporate Cocktail in Winter Semester brings together relevant chemical engineering companies to discuss job prospects for the undergraduates.
* Industry Tours are created to show chemical engineers real -life examples of principles and theory theories learned in coursework.
* Canadian Chemical Engineering Conference - We organize a delegation of undergraduates to represent McGill Undergraduates and learn about current trends and developments in the chemical engineering industry.
==Academic Aid==
ChESS has designed coursepacks for core courses that have low -class averages. Currently , the collection covers 7 courses:
* CHEE 200
We also have access to funds to pay TA’s for Review Sessions - Talk to the VP Academic! This falls under the EUSF fund which depends on the number of students enrolled in the program. VP Academic also controls a fund called the EFC that allows the Professors fund equipments for their labs once a year.
VP Academic holds at least one academic forum per semester where students get to give feedback on courses. This feedback is forwarded to the Department chair Chair and actions are taken if necessary. So student feedback is greatly valued in the department.
In the Summer of 2016, ChESS initiated a program that aims to create tutorial content online for courses that students struggle with under the portfolio of VP Academic.
==Financials==
In hopes for of transparency, here is where your money goes.
