Tokyo Electron (TEL) presented a donation of $150,000 to the University of Texas at Austin Departments of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry and Biochemistry. TEL's contribution is part of a donation program for universities doing research focused on processes and technology used in the semiconductor industry.

"We will use these funds to support research by outstanding undergraduate students in chemistry and in chemical and mechanical engineering who would otherwise not have this opportunity. I am pleased and proud that TEL has had such an active involvement in our research work and we look forward to continued collaboration with them," said Dr. Grant Willson, research professor of chemical engineering and chemistry.
