Biography

Eng Ying obtained her bachelor degree in Chemical Engineering from RMIT University, Australia. She continued to pursue her doctorate, where her dissertation focused on solid-liquid mass transfer in an adsorption operation using high concentration slurries in collaboration with CSIRO (the federal research body in Australia). The aim of the work is to achieve process intensification in solid-liquid mass transfer vessels both in terms of mass transfer rate and energy input which has many industrial implications, especially in mineral processing operations. She joined the SUTD family straight after completion of her PhD in 2013.

Eng Ying primarily teaches Freshmore subjects, including Natural World, Introduction to Physical Chemistry and Engineering in Physical World. She developed e-learning videos with the aim of instilling fundamental masteries in Chemistry for students commencing studies in SUTD. She hopes to investigate the effectiveness of digital learning using various digital tools in education.
