Dr. Monica Lupion received her PhD in Chemical Engineering from the University of Seville, Spain, and since then, has had a diverse and rich working experience in academia (Associate Professor & Senior researcher, University of Seville, Spain), government (European Commission Expert Evaluator), and industry. Most recently, Dr. Lupion worked at the MIT Energy Initiative, where she led multi-disciplinary sponsored research efforts into energy systems and low carbon technologies. In addition to teaching, she will also be developing a new co-op program as part of our longterm plan to offer students more opportunities for industrial experience, and to enhance their connections.
