Events

Prof Mekonnen will discuss chemical modification and structure-function of polysaccharides for material applications, as well as recent trends in enzyme polymerization platforms for polysaccharide production.

Supervisors: Hector Budman, Chemical Engineering, and ​Raymonde Legge, Chemical Engineering

Professor Koziński will discuss combustion in supercritical water (SCW), which is one of the least explored processes. He will also present a novel concept for the in situ study of SCW flames, flameless oxidation and gasification.

PhD candidate (Chemistry) Geoff Sinclair will discuss the use of direct (hetero)arylation (DAr) and direct (hetero)arylation polymerization (DHAP) as a tool for the synthesis of conjugated organic small molecules and polymers.

Please join the Department of Chemical Engineering on Wednesday, January 16, 2019 for a guest lecture by Professor Edson Leite, Scientific Director of the Brazillian Nanotechnology National Laboratory and Professor in the Chemistry Department at Federal University of São Carlos, speaking on the synthesis of ceramic oxides nanoparticles. 

Please join the Institute for Polymer Research (IPR) on Tuesday, February 5, 2019 for a guest lecture by Professor Mitchell Winnik, University Professor of Chemistry at University of Toronto, speaking on Biomedical Applications of Metal-chelating Polymers and Lanthanide Nanoparticles.

The Chemical Engineering Graduate Student Association (CEGSA) is hosting a mixer to introduce the department's newest graduate students to those who have been here a while.

All graduate CHE students are welcome to join the fun – meet some new people, enjoy some pizza and relax with good conversation and maybe even a board game.
