Monash is one of Malaysia’ s top universities for chemical engineering, with global accreditations that would open doors to international opportunities. The University’ s vibrant student life and strong academic environment gave me the foundation, exposure, and support to grow both technically and personally.”
LEE CHIN LOONG
Bachelor of Chemical Engineering( Honours) President of the Monash IChemE Student Chapter, 2018 / 19 Process Engineer, ExxonMobil
As a student, Chin Loong was involved in the installation of the University’ s biodiesel pilot plant and the development of a filtration system to pre-treat waste cooking oil. He also built a water circulatory cooling system that reduced operational costs by 65 % and saved up to 1300 litres of water a day. The system eliminated the reactor’ s reliance on an external water source and is now used in 11 small-scale reactors in Monash’ s chemical engineering lab.
