Nominations have begun for the annual graduate-student-selected seminar speaker. We are looking for nominees that have unique life stories or experiences that show what people can do in chemical engineering, or really any science background. The main focus of the talk should not be research. We want a good story with some research thrown in. There are no restrictions on who can be nominated, but think about who we can realistically get to come to talk to a group of about 60 chemical engineers on 4-5 months notice.
Click here to fill out the form.
Nominations are due Friday, October 28th.
