The prestigious Barry Goldwater Scholarship for the 2018-2019 academic year has been awarded to two students in the state of Utah, both of whom are chemistry majors at the U: Philippe David and Cameron Owen!

Philippe David is currently doing undergraduate research in the Grunwald group and plans to pursue a PhD in theoretical chemistry and develop new models and simulation methods to study nanomaterials. He plans to become a professor at a research university.

Cameron Owen’s undergraduate research with Peter Armentrout has already resulted in several publication and he hopes to study the chemical properties of materials in the search of new catalytic devices. He plans to earn a PhD in analytical and physical chemistry.
