U-M College of Engineering honors Suljo Linic on his amazing journey to the Martin Lewis Perl Collegiate Professor of Chemical Engineering.

U-M ChE Assistant Professor Jovan Kamcev has received a Young Membrane Scientist Award from the North American Membrane Society (NAMS) for research into developing next-generation membranes for brine concentration via electrodialysis.

The new approach could enable farmers to produce ammonia on-site, and also reduce CO2 emissions from fertilizer production.

Understanding how to design better catalysts could enable sustainable energy tech and make everyday chemicals more environmentally friendly.

He changed the chemical engineering profession as a researcher, scholar, author, and, most importantly, a skilled and accomplished educator.

Honored by AIChE for his discovery of chiral nanostructures with large amplitude optical activity and establishing chemical principles for their engineering

As a student, Kizito Madu worked to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within the department and surrounding communities.

“I am delighted to work with Michigan Engineering leadership to reimagine graduate education for a post-pandemic world.”

New catalyst could stabilize supplies of one of the world’s most important plastics.

The award, named in honor of a former Michigan ChE professor, is given for the best paper in the ChE division at ASEE.

Professor Nina Lin, and co-PIs, professors Andrew Allman and Maciek R. Antoniewicz, will be working on this project.

The method could one day be used to develop nanobodies against other viruses and disease targets as well.

A team of computational and experimental engineers demonstrate a blueprint for building materials with new properties from nanocrystals.

Kamcev is one of only 51 researchers from U.S. universities to receive the award this year.
