2007 CSChE chemical engineering local section scholarship winners/Les gagnants 2007 des bourse de genie chimique des sections locales de la SCGCh.

Sponsored by the Edmonton CSChE, the Sarnia CIC, and the London ClC Local Sections

Parraine par les sections locales d'Edmonton de la SCGCh, de Sarnia de I'ICC et de London de I'ICC

The Scholarships are funded by the proceeds acquired at the 1988 Canadian Chemical Engineering Conference, held in Edmonton, AB, the 1979 Chemical Engineering Conference, held in Sarnia, ON, and the 1998 Canadian Chemical Engineering Conference held in London, ON.

The Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering offers two CSChE Chemical Engineering Local Section Scholarships annually to undergraduate students in chemical engineering at a Canadian university.

Les bourses sont financees par les recettes du Congres canadien de genie chimique qui s'est tenu a Edmonton (Alberta) en 1988, du Congres canadien de genie chimique qui s'est tenu a Sarnia (Ontario) en 1979 et du Conges canadien de genie chimique qui s'est tenu a London (Ontario) en 1998.

Lauren Davies, ACIC

McMaster University

Department of chemical and biological engineering

Lauren Davies is in her final year of chemical engineering and bioengineering at McMaster University. For the past three summers, she has conducted research in chemical engineering, exploring topics that range from biomaterials to paper technologies. At the CSChE Conference in Sherbrooke, she co-authored a presentation in the Challenges in Regenerative Medicine symposium. At the Monsaroff Student Paper Night sponsored by the Hamilton Local Section, she presented her research under the title, "Why We Engineer Biomaterials." Her accomplishments include winning 1st and 2nd place in the consulting engineering category at the Ontario and Canadian Engineering Competitions respectively.

Davies serves breakfast to the homeless with Hamilton Out of the Cold every morning and volunteers at Martha House a shelter for women fleeing domestic abuse Davies relishes singing in a student choir and playing in a softball league.
