Professor Eva Sorensen MBE FREng 

Professor and Head of Department, Chemical Engineering, University College London 

Professor Eva Sorensen is a global leader in separations research and chemical engineering education. Her seminal work on the modelling, design and control of novel separation technologies has facilitated the adoption of state-of-the-art distillation, membrane and chromatography technologies. This has resulted in process intensification and increased energy efficiency. She is also internationally recognised for innovation in engineering education and has been instrumental in the development of a new undergraduate Integrated engineering programme at UCL. She is wholly committed to making engineering more inclusive, leading her department to become the first UK Athena SWAN Gold Award recipient in chemical engineering.
