Congratulations to Dr Geran Zhang – Chemmat grad who completed a PhD at the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Geran visited the department in May with the good news that he has not only completed his PhD at MIT, where he was on a full scholarship awarded by MIT, but also that he was embarking on a new job with Bain & Company.

Geran’s PhD was on “Biotemplated Resin and Carbon Nanomaterials for Energy and Environmental Applications” and was carried out under the supervision of Professor Angela Belcher.

When asked about his career choice with Bain and Company, he said that this huge multinational corporation recruits at MIT and is particularly interested in picking up PhD graduates – valued for their training in logical thinking and hypoethesis testing. We wish Geran all the best for his exciting new job.
