Chemical Engineering Medal for Proficiency in Research

This award was established by Dr. and Mrs. Park M. Reilly to recognize skill in research as measured by analysis of an engineering problem, planning an efficient solution of the problem and achieving the solution with superior insight into the science and/or engineering involved. All doctoral graduates in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo are eligible. The nomination of a student must originate with the PhD Examining Committee, which will submit the nomination to the Chemical Engineering Graduate Review Committee. Supporting documents including a recommendation from the supervisor(s) and in particular the external examiner should accompany the nomination. The Graduate Review Committee will consider all nominations and submit a single nomination to a regular monthly meeting of the Department for approval. This medal recognizes outstanding doctoral research achievement in chemical engineering.
