Hello, I am Iain, the Department Officer for Chemical Engineering 24/25, I am delighted to be working collaboratively with student and staff to make for a better learning environment, regardless of abilities, gender, background, nationalities and disabilities. Whether it be to support in difficult situations or to acknowledge great work and involvement from student and staff have contributed to the department.

I also spend my time rock climbing to destress after a long day of studying.
