| No Comments | No TrackBacks
A lot of chemical companies announcing education partnership the past few days.

This one is from German rubber company Lanxess who launched an education initiative in collaboration with the Qingdao University of Science and Technology (QUST) in Qingdao, China.

Last May, graduate students from the School of Polymer Science and Engineering at QUST attended a five-day advanced study program conducted by LANXESS's Technical Rubber Products business unit. The students worked through some of the most complex technical and scientific problems in polymer physics and rubber chemistry.

At the end of program a final examination was held to select the winner of the LANXESS Rubber Student Award, which was introduced in the initiative to recognize outstanding students in polymer and rubber science.

Ms. Wang Shuang Shuang, a postgraduate student from the School of Polymer Science and Engineering at QUST, became the first recipient of the award and will benefit from one month of technical training at LANXESS's headquarters in Leverkusen, Germany.

That's good to put in a resume!
