Graduate Symposium

The annual University of Michigan Chemical Engineering Graduate Symposium brings together graduate students, faculty, and industry representatives to discuss the innovative research conducted by our department. The Symposium provides an opportunity to build relationships between our department and the industrial sector. The full-day event showcases our department’s research through poster and oral presentations given by graduate students. Additionally, the Symposium showcases local, national, and international companies in the chemical and engineering industries and provides a valuable opportunity to connect with senior graduate students nearing graduation. In addition to student presentations, the Symposium includes a keynote presentation, company networking sessions, and optional dedicated presentations from Maize- and Blue-level corporate sponsors. The day concludes by recognizing some exceptional students in our department, with awards given for service, teaching, research, and outstanding oral and poster presentations.
