ECS Technische Universität München Student Chapter is the 2024 Outstanding Student Chapter. Two student chapters were also named 2024 Chapters of Excellence: ECS University of Michigan Student Chapter and ECS Universität Münster Student Chapter.

The Society established the Outstanding Student Chapter Award in 2012 to recognize distinguished ECS Student Chapters that demonstrate active participation in the Society’s technical activities; establish community and outreach activities in the areas of electrochemical and solid state science and engineering education; and create and maintain a robust membership base.

Congratulations to all three winners for their hard work. ECS is proud to support your journey to scientific knowledge via community, connection, and career building! (more…)
