LASALLIAN engineering students were cited for their innovative science and technology theses during the 23rd BPI – DOST Science Awards held at the Br. Andrew Gonzalez Multipurpose Hall on March 9, 2012.
Recognized were: Electronics and Communication Engineering major Aibar Rabi Rashad Bibi for his thesis “Battery Management System (BMS) for Lithium-Ion Electric Vehicle Traction Batteries”; Manufacturing Engineering Management student Katherine Marie de Asis, for her thesis “Crab Claw Meat Extracting and Crab Shell Granulating Machine”; and Mechanical Engineering major Neil Stephen Lopez for his thesis “Energy Modeling, Fabrication and Evaluation of a Small-Scale Natural Convection Solar Dryer for Microalgae Biofuel Production.”
Organized in 1989 by the BPI Foundation, Inc., an arm of the Bank of the Philippine Islands, with the Department of Science and Technology, the BPI-DOST Science Awards recognizes exceptional science and engineering students from partner-universities nationwide. The awardees are recognized for their potential contributions to industry and nation-building, and are selected on the basis of their academic and research performance and nominations from their schools.
