Ventura-Medina, Esther - University of Strathclyde - Department of Chemical & Process Engineering

个人简介

I joined the University in May 2015 as Senior Lecturer in the Department of Chemical and Process Engineering. Before I came to Strathclyde I worked as a Senior Lecturer (Education) at Monash University, Australia (2013-2015) and a Teaching Fellow and a Senior Lecturer (Teaching) at the University of Manchester (2005-2013). I graduated with a BSc and then an MSc in Chemical Engineering from Universidad Simón Bolívar, Caracas (Venezuela) before going to the Department of Chemical Engineering at UMIST, Manchester (UK) to do my PhD in the area of Froth Flotation under the supervision of Prof Jan Cilliers. After finishing my PhD in 2000 I continued to work in the 'Froth and Foam Research Group' at Manchester as a Research Associate. In 2005 I was awarded a Post-graduate Certificate in Education PGCE -(Secondary Maths) at the University of Manchester in 2005 which marked the beginning of my career in the area of Education.
