The 2020 graduation ceremony for the Chemistry and Chemical engineering section took place on Friday 2nd October at the Forum of the EPFL Rolex Learning Center.

54 graduates received their diplomas after a very challenging end of academic year. 8 more students will be graduating next year, due to the COVID which made it impossible to finish their research/thesis on time.

Many awards were also given on that occasion:

Prix Pelet: Ane Laura Fineid Pedersen

Prix de la Commune de Chavannes-près-Renens: Samuel Van Gele

Teaching excellence award: Anne-Sophie Chauvin, Christophe Roussel et Samuel Terrettaz

Prix BASF Monthey in chemistry: Constantin Krüger

Prix BASF Monthey in chemical engineering: Diane Bernard-Bruls

Prix Syngenta Monthey in chemistry: Constantin Krüger

Prix Syngenta Monthey in chemical engineering: Claire Bourmaud

Congratulations to all and best of luck for the future! A special thanks also goes to the 2019-2020 graduates' mentor, M. Olivier Magnin, who we had the pleasure to welcome.
