Texas ChE graduate students amongst eight chosen at the University of Texas at Austin for the Samsung Fellowship Awards for Spring 2025. Thanks to a recent donation from Samsung, eight fellowships were awarded to students enrolled in the Cockrell School of Engineering. This fellowship includes a spring stipend, insurance, tuition payment, along with a $5,000 topping fellowship.
Harrison Lippie
"Harrison uses electrochemistry and advanced spectroscopy techniques to understand the dynamic surfaces of complex metal oxide catalysts used for water electrolysis. The insights from this work will be used to design cheaper, higher performance catalysts for the production of green hydrogen."
