Chemical Engineering Going Strong!

The girls have finished their third rotation out of four in the ChemE half of the camp. They have been learning about many aspects of chemical engineering. Today they made soap, lip gloss, and bath bombs, getting a taste of what chemical engineers do in developing new consumer products!

It is amazing to see the intellect, poise, and persistence that each of these young ladies posseses. I have been truly impressed and honored to be working with them!

The girls will be using the skills they have developed throughout the week to start working on their projects on Friday. It will certainly take a lot of work to figure out a way to manufacture and transport polio vaccines to the Dominican Republic!
