Travel expenses for many of the faculty and students to attend the conference were paid by the School of Chemical Engineering and the College of Engineering, Architecture, and Technology through generous gifts given by our donors to support our program.
EVENTS:
The AIChE 2024 Graduate Student Recruitment Fair took place on Sunday, Oct. 27, bringing together sponsors, representatives, and faculty from across the nation to engage with prospective students.
Dr. Jindal Shah, an associate professor and the graduate program director at Oklahoma State University, played a pivotal role in managing the recruitment fair. With his extensive expertise in chemical engineering, Shah interacted with prospective students and organized the participation of current OSU graduate students.
The following 11 students — Masrur Ahmed, Saeed Azizi, Omio Das, Sudip Das, Niloo Fatemipayam, Saba Ghasemi Naraghi, Sushobhan Pradhan, Zeyuan Song, Amey Thorat, Ashuotsh Verma, and Alireza Zahedi all played a vital role by networking and sharing their positive experiences at OSU.
The event was also managed by Natalie Henderson, who created the marketing items and ensured that ChE’s presence was both visually appealing and informative, and faculty members Clint Aichele, Hong Je Cho, Seokjin Kim, Heather Fahlenkamp, and Josh Ramsey who contributed their dedication and leadership. Together, their teamwork highlighted the strengths of ChE’s graduate programs and fostered meaningful connections with future students.
