A graduate of the Afe Babalola University Ado-Ekiti, ABUAD, Cynthia Falegan, has been offered admission to pursue her Ph.D in Chemical Engineering at the University of Toledo, UT, Ohio, in the United States of America, USA, without a Master’s Degree.
In a statement by ABUAD’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Mr Femi Olofintila stated that in a March 20, 2024, letter signed by the Acting Vice Provost for Graduate Affairs, UT, Dr. Daniel J. Hammel congratulated Falegan for her well-merited admission.
Hammel said: “We are pleased to offer you admission to The University of Toledo’s Engineering (Ph D) Chemical Engineering programme in the College of Engineering for the fall 2024 term. We look forward to meeting you.”
Speaking on her decision to pursue her Doctorate studies in the USA, Falegan said: “I decided to pursue my Ph. D studies in the United States because of the research foundation I acquired at ABUAD on Water and Wastewater treatment as well as my love for sustainable solutions in Nigeria, particularly in the Niger Delta Region.
“Even though I didn’t have a Master’s Degree when I applied, I was accepted into two prestigious universities and given full funding, which will pay for all of my tuition during my five years of study. I’ll be pursuing a Ph. D in Chemical Engineering at the University of Toledo in Ohio, United States.”
