CONGRATULATIONS SPRING 2024 GRADUATES!
A big congratulations to all of our EES graduates! In addition to degrees, a number
of awards were given out to EES students for outstanding scholarship and research.
Learn more on our new awards page.
DEPARTMENT SPOTLIGHT:
The Winter 2024 issue of the NMT alumni magazine, Gold Pan, is focused on water and EES faculty and students
are prominently featured - check it out to learn about the active research on water
in EES!
