Ehsan Espid

My name is Ehsan Espid. I am currently a MASc Student working on a project related to developments of a new photocatalytic microreactors. During my     B.S. career, I dedicated a great portion of my time to do group activities and participate in social committees, so my Extracurricular Activities gave me valuable experiences by fully interacting with faculties and staff. Here I’m going to devote myself to help the GSS become better integrated into graduate student life. My goals for my term in GSS generally will  be on developing an effective connection to establish closer relation with graduate students to promote awareness of campus facilities and devise a way to share these facilities with all graduate students in different departments.

Greeting my fellow grad students, I, Pooya, hail from Iran and started my PhD program in January 2012 working on “bi-functional oxygen evolution/reduction cathodes in alkaline batteries and fuel cells” under the supervision of Prof. Elod Gyenge. Since I am currently the treasurer in our one and only ECS BC Student Chapter, I have some experiences dealing with financial issues such as funding for events. Hence, I would like to work with my fellow councilors in GSS Council to make GSS funds more accessible to every events hosted by any grad student including my friends in CHBE. I think it is a great opportunity for me to deal with one of major grad event’s sponsors in our UBC to hopefully make it easier to host a grad event in CHBE or any other department in the future.
