“My Villanova Engineering research and courses prepared me for the technical challenges a process engineer faces daily, and taught me some incredibly valuable communications skills. My adviser was more than just a good professor—he and the entire department always had my personal development and best interests in mind.”
Chris Bongo, Process Engineer, Air Products
“My advisor’s industrial experience comes with a great sense of knowing what is realistic and brings access to industry research projects, expanded networking opportunities, and most importantly, his management skills. He pushes me hard, but always has a sense of reality and work/life balance.”
Anthony Vallace, current Villanova PhD student
