About Us
The ECS Montreal Student Chapter was founded in September 2010 to promote communication and collaboration between electrochemistry and material science students from Montreal and the surrounding areas.
The ECS Montreal Student Symposium is a yearly event that attracts over a hundred students, professors, researchers and industrial scientists.
Sarah Yassine
President
McGill University
Sarah studies the synergetic effects of corrosion and fatigue on stainless steels used for hydraulic turbines.​​​
​
She enjoys watching documentaries, hiking and getting into social debates.
