Following his graduation in the summer, Sam joined Croda as a Graduate Process Engineer.
During his studies, Sam completed an industrial placement year at GSK as a Downstream Process Engineer. During this time he achieved EngTech registration with IChemE.
Achieving a first-class degree, Sam gained the highest mark in his year group both for his individual design project and his final year research project.
During his time as a student, he was a keen musician, playing piano, trumpet and viola, and also a rugby player, captaining the º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ 2nd team. As well as this, he was part of an outreach programme that involved tutoring maths to GCSE students. He is continuing these pursuits post-graduation.
I feel extremely privileged to receive this prestigious award from the Salters’ Institute recognising my hard work throughout my degree and placements.
I would like to thank my family and friends for their support and encouragement through the highs and lows as well as the Department of Chemical Engineering at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ who have helped develop me and equip me with the tools to pursue my future goals.
I have thoroughly enjoyed starting my career at Croda putting into practice all I learned at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ to make a positive impact supporting Croda’s vision of a sustainable future.
