Advanced Propulsion MSc: An Introduction to Pack Engineering
In this taster lecture, Dr. James Robinson, Programme Director of the Advanced Propulsion MSc at UCL Chemical Engineering, discussed the application-specific considerations that must be applied to road, rail, marine, and aerospace electrification. He also explored how batteries and fuel cells can be deployed to maximise the ‘green’ credentials of future transport. Presented by: Dr. James Robinson, Programme Director of the Advanced Propulsion MSc.

Using Chemical Engineering to help children with cancer | Spring Into STEM
The AdReNa (Adaptive and Responsive Nanomaterials) research group is interested in the fundamental question of how materials form and interact on the nanoscale with the aim to create colloids and interfaces that can selectively interact with chemical and biological targets. In this talk, Stefan Guldin will show how this research is relevant for applications in healthcare and the environment, in particular how our work at UCL informs clinical prototypes for therapeutic drug monitoring in paediatric cancer.

How Fuel Cells Work | Spring Into STEM
Fuel cells represent a potentially efficient and clean way of generating electricity for a wide range of uses from a direct electrochemical reaction. The basic idea behind the fuel cell has been around since the 19th century. Fuel cells powered the Apollo space programme in the 60s and there are even fuel-cell cars and buses on our roads now. However, their commercial uptake has been somewhat hindered by issues of cost and engineering and recently has been competing with the drastically reduced prices of Li-ion batteries. This lecture will give an overview of how fuel cells work and the myriad of different material properties that need to come together for their effective operation. These span many length scales, from the nano to the macro-scale, as well as encompassing problems from the disciplines of chemistry, physics, electrical, chemical and mechanical engineering and even biology (for microbial fuel cells).

Discover Acoustical Engineering | Spring Into STEM
Acoustical engineering is in considerable request in most fields of engineering, whether to ameliorate inner vision or characterizing fluid properties. Acoustical engineering is the application of acoustics - the science of sound and vibration - in technology. It has broad applications across most aspects, from nuclear reprocessing to enhancing medical imaging. Recently, acoustics methods applied to opaque systems have attracted the attention of researchers in fluid mechanics. In particular, owing to their ability to characterize in real-time, non-transparent and highly concentrated fluid-particle systems, they have been applied to the study of complex multiphase flows such as two-phase and three-phase fluid systems. This lecture will provide you with a special knowledge of sound, vibration, and engineering applications, together with a core knowledge of mechanical engineering.

Teaching Process Plant Design at UCL Chemical Engineering | Spring Into STEM
At UCL, we understand how science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) are fundamental to the way we live our lives and shape so many of the things that we see and do every day. UCL Chemical Engineering’s Design Teaching Team (Dr Michaela Pollock, Dr Javier Fernandez Garcia, Dr Sakiru Badmos and Dr Ademola Odunsi) explore the applied nature of chemical engineering in this taster lecture.
