Gregory Lui, the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ’ 3MT 2018 winner, placed fifth at the provincial Three Minute Thesis competition at York University in April, where he competed against twenty of the best presenters in Ontario. Congratulations Gregory!
Congratulations to Diogo de Oliveira Livera, Piaopiao Long, Aswathy Ann Thomas, and Gareth Toogood-Holmes, who won the Norman Esch Entrepreneurship Award for Capstone Design and finished third place in the IDEAs Design Analysis Competition.
The 2017-2018 Murray Moo-Young Biotechnology Scholarship has been awarded to two Chemical Engineering students: Paul Chen, a PhD student who is being supervised by Professor Frank Gu, and Mark Bruder, a PhD student who is being supervised by Professor Marc Aucoin.
The Murray Moo-Young Biotechnology Scholarship was established in 1982 with a donation by Distinguished Professor Emeritus Murray Moo-Young to encourage research of bioprocessing strategies in industrial biomanufacturing and environmental bioremediation.
Congratulations to Gregory Lui, who is completing his PhD in Chemical Engineering at University of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ, for winning the University’s Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition. 3MT is an international research communication competition in which graduate students have three minutes to distill their research into a presentation that is both understandable and engaging to a non-technical audience.
Graduate Chemical Engineering students looking to learn more about the services provided by their student society can now find out more online, at the new Chemical Engineering Graduate Student Society Website.
Forty-one teams of fourth-year chemical engineering students presented the results of their Capstone Design projects at the annual Capstone Design Symposium, which was held March 12th in the atrium of Engineering 6. In the process of sharing their research, they demonstrated the diverse and creative nature of chemical engineering and the promise it holds for future generations.
When Chemical Engineering hosted its departmental heat of the Three Minute Thesis (3MT) competition on February 8th, the room was packed with audience members keen to learn more about our research-based masters and doctoral students’ exciting investigations. Eleven graduate students took turns presenting the high points of the research they have spent years conducting – using one static PowerPoint slide, language that could be understood by the general public…and within only three minutes.
Congratulations to fourth-year chemical engineering students Jack Anderson, Skylar Bone, Olsi Goxhaj and Kien Tran. Their Capstone Design team, Green Sorbs, won first prize in the Ontario Engineering Competition, which was held at the University of Ottawa in January.
