Giebel has interned with The Timken Co., working in both the research and develop- ment and metallurgy groups. Jonathan Hollenbach Drexel University Hollenbach is a rising senior at Drexel University, majoring in mate- rials science and engineering. At the Drexel Nanomaterials Institute, he syn- thesized novel MXene supercapacitors. He worked to help optimize high-tem- perature ceramic sintering at the Army Research Laboratory and presented his work as a speaker at ICACC’19. At Sartomer and Arkema Inc., he developed resin formulations for stereolithography 3D printing. Hollenbach is currently working with Drexel’s Par- ticulate Materials Group to design finite element analysis models for metal additive manufacturing. Owen Murdock The Ohio State University At 16, Murdock developed a pas- sion for welding after enrolling in a welding fabrication program. In high school, he pursued positions at Capital Steel and Worthington Industries. Mur- dock won several awards, including a national gold medal for public speak- ing and leadership skills at SkillsUSA. Currently a junior in welding engineering at OSU, his next goal is to intern in Ger- many and perform graduate research with a Ph.D. mentor in summer 2021. Michael O’Neill Georgia Institute of Technology O’Neill is a senior at Georgia Tech, studying materials science and engi- neering with a structural and func- tional materials concentration. He was first introduced to the field of mate- rials science in high school, when he attended an ASM Materials Camp at Drexel University. O’Neill has undertaken research related to metallographic sample preparation and microstructural characterization of thin copper films. He has interned at Laboratory Testing Inc. and NASA Langley Research Center, and is currently an intern for Lockheed Martin Space. Anna Park Carnegie Mellon University Park is a senior at Carnegie Mel- lon, studying materials science and engineering with a minor in electronic materials. After a high school intern- ship on perovskite solar cells at the University of Maryland, Park knew she wanted to pursue materials science in college and start research right away. She has interned at CEA/CNRS Néel in Grenoble, France, studying InAs nano- wires used in quantum computing. She has also performed research on the characterization and growth of ohmic con- tacts on alloyed gallium oxide. Acta Materialia Scholarships The Acta Materialia Scholarships were established in 2017 by Acta Materialia through its Board of Governors, as an expression of commitment to education and the mate- rials science and engineering community. Two scholars will each receive a certificate and check for $5000 toward educa- tional expenses for one academic year. Eden Diller Trine University Diller is a sophomore at Trine University, where she majors in chem- ical engineering with a minor in met- allurgy. She has worked for New Millennium Building Systems LLC and Steel Dynamics Inc. as an environmen- tal engineering co-op for two terms, focusing her attention on federal environmental reporting requirements and exploring process engineering in the met- allurgy world. Diller was called up for active duty this sum- mer with the Indiana National Guard for COVID-19 response. She is excited to resume her engineering curriculum. Anastasia July University of Pittsburgh July is a senior at the University of Pittsburgh, studying materials sci- ence and engineering with a concen- tration in ferrous physical metallurgy. She plans to pursue a career in the steel industry as a metallurgist. During her sophomore and junior years, she worked with Pitt’s ferrous physical metallurgy lab on micro- structural analysis. July interned with Nucor Steel Deca- tur this past summer and enjoyed the industry experience working in the cold mill. 2020 SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS
