Timothy C. Eisele, an associate professor of chemical engineering at Michigan Technological University, has been named the first recipient of the Department of Chemical Engineering Endowed Faculty Fellowship. Donations from Michigan Tech’s chemical engineering alumni are funding the fellowship.

Eisele holds a BS, MS and PhD in Metallurgical Engineering, all from Michigan Tech. In his research, he develops bacterial processes for upgrading and extracting iron ores and low-cost reprocessing of industrial wastes such as slags and sludges to recover valuable metals.

“The fellowship will provide me with an opportunity to carry out early-stage proof-of-concept experiments that will lead to externally-funded research projects,” he says.
