BOC Gases Awards



The annual postgraduate BOC Gases bursaries were awarded to three former PhD students from the School of Chemistry on Friday, December 5th. Students were nominated by their supervisors for consideration for the bursary during the nomination round and a panel of the school’s academic staff from across the Chemistry disciplines judged the submissions. With great difficulty due to the high standard of submissions, the judges identified three students whose work shone above the rest. Manting Mu (Garcia Melchor group), Filippo Pota (Colavita group) and Anastasiia Shandra (Nicolosi group) each gave a 15-minute presentation of their work to the school and to BOC Gases representative, James Kelch who presented them with certificates and their bursaries of €1250, €750 and €500 respectively.



Congratulations to all 3 prizewinners.
Coffee Morning Money Handed to UNICEF

On Tuesday, December 2nd Prof. Isabel Rozas (as part of "The Coven") made the walk across the river to the UNICEF offices to hand in the cash portion of the money raised during our coffee morning. Over €1200 was raised including €750 in cash and and the rest donated directly via the UNICEF website on the day.
Well done to all involved!
No Tricks, Just Treats: School of Chemistry hold Coffee Morning in Aid of UNICEF

On Friday, October 24th, the School of Chemistry was delighted to host a coffee morning in aid of UNICEF in our tea room. Delicious treats were provided by budding bakers among the staff and students of the school with a great diversity of cakes, breads, biscuits and other baked goods on offer
It was wonderful to see such a great turnout, with support not only from our own students and staff but also from colleagues and friends across Physics, Pharmacy, Health Sciences, and Politics.
Thanks to everyone's generosity and enthusiasm, we raised over €1,200 for UNICEF — nearly €750 collected in cash and the rest donated directly via the UNICEF website.
Thank you all for making the event such a success!
