Syensqo donates $3,500 to support STEM education abroad
Syensqo
, a leading science company at the forefront of chemistry, biotechnology, clean mobility,
and sustainable solutions, is making a significant impact by donating $3,500 to UHCL.
This generous contribution will support faculty-led education abroad in France for
STEM students specializing in biotechnology during the Summer of 2025.
With over 13,000 associates worldwide, Syensqo is not just advancing science — it
believes in nurturing the leaders who will drive the next wave of technological breakthroughs.
Thriving as a transfer student at UHCL
When Marlin Martinez packed her bags to leave Texas State University, she was unsure
if transferring was the right decision. Moving to a new school felt overwhelming,
but as soon as she stepped onto the UHCL campus, she felt something different — a
sense of belonging.
According to recent Institute for Higher Education Policy data, nearly 40% of all
college students in the U.S. transfer from one institution to another. Marlin is one
of them, now pursuing a
Bachelor of Science in Education with Core Subjects EC-6
, specializing in Early Childhood. Inspired by her mother, who has been a teacher
for over 20 years, she has always had a passion for education.
A journey of advocacy and leadership at UHCL
Zachary Sheriff never expected to attend UHCL. In fact, he does not even remember
applying. But when that blue and green acceptance letter arrived, it set off a chain
of events that would shape his future in ways he never imagined. Today, as
Student Government
(SG) president and a fierce advocate for education, Zachary has found his voice and
purpose. Through leadership, mentorship, and advocacy, he is making an impact on campus
and beyond.
