Profile
I hold a a Bachelor of Engineering B.Eng (2016) in degree from the department of Metallurgical Engineering from the University of Science and Technology Beijing, China, before proceeding to study for a Masters of Science, Engineering (MSc. Eng, 2019) degree in Material Science and Technology from the Institute for Advanced Materials and Technology, University of Science and Technology Beijing, China in 2016.
I was later inspired by my interest in corrosion science and engineering to undertake a Ph.D course in the School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds.
I am a Postgraduate research student, currently working on molten salt corrosion in solar power project in the Institute of Functional Surfaces, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds.
