Event Description
Provost and Senior Vice President Nadine Aubry and Dean Jianmin Qu, Karol Family Professor, School of Engineering, invite the community to celebrate the establishment of the Tiampo Family Professorship.
The inaugural Tiampo Family Assistant Professor, Amy Pickering, will present a lecture on, "Overcoming Barriers to Safe Water Access in Low‑Income Countries." Please join us for a celebratory reception following the lecture.
