The Chemical, Energy and Process Engineering Doctorate Program organized the anual Doctoral Seminars. The aim of these seminars is to promote the training of PhD students and disseminate their research activities. The seminars, open to the members of the doctorate program and to general public, included the assessment of the doctorate students´progress by the academic panel of supervisors. This year, due to the current situation about COVID-19, the seminars took place through Skype Business app, on June 17 and 18, 2020.
The first session was dedicated to 3rd/4th year Phd. students. During this session the presented works were:
