Seminar - "Microscale Processing for High-Throughput Studies in Water Separations and Bio-Polymer Processing", by David Latulippe, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemical Engineering, McMaster University
ABSTRACT: There is considerable interest in the use of micro-scale processing (MSP) techniques for process development and optimization. The advantages of developing miniaturized versions of upstream and downstream unit operations that are scalable to actual production conditions are considerable. First, it reduces the material costs associated with running a large number of lab-scale or full-scale trials. Second, it accommodates a parallel approach for experimental testing, instead of the more traditional sequential approach, and thus is ideally suited for high-throughp
Seminar - "How to Become a Professor in N Easy Steps, where N >> 1" by Jeff Gostick, Department of Chemical Engineering, McGill University
Abstract: In this talk, a recent University of Waterloo PhD graduate will discuss the transition from graduate student to assistant professor. Topics will include the ingredients of a good PhD project, structuring your future research plans, setting reasonable expectations, the joys and burdens of teaching, the paradoxical nature of hiring the best lab rats (PhDs) to become rat trainers (Professors), and generally how to begin ‘thinking like a professor’. By way of illustration he will discuss his own experience in the context of his research on ‘engineered’ porous mater
