Tzatzilt Cruz Bernal was the recipient of CWSN’s SURE 2018 and spent one month  working in the Environmental Water Resource Engineering laboratories at the University of Texas at Austin. 

​Tzatzilt is a junior at Universidad La Salle Oaxaca in Mexico. She studies environmental engineering and has aspirations to attend graduate school on water remediation and nanomaterials. From growing up in Oaxaca, she is well aware of many issues related to water quality. She feels destined to help her hometown by making sustentable actions to clean the Atoyac River (one of the most polluted rivers in Mexico).

Nubia R. Quevedo was one of the recipient of CWSN’s SURE 2019 and spent one month  working in the Environmental Water Resource Engineering laboratories at the University of Texas at Austin. 

Nubia is a senior student at Universidad de La Salle  in Bogotá (Colombia), where she studies environmental and sanitary engineering. She plans to gain some work experience before studying a master in the environmental and industrial toxicology field. Her goal is to learn more about technologies to treat polluted water to apply this knowledge in her home country.

Yuriko N. Aguilar was also one of the recipient of CWSN’s SURE 2019 and spent one month  working in the Environmental Water Resource Engineering laboratories at the University of Texas at Austin. ​

Yuriko is a junior student at Universidad Politécnica de la Zona Metropolitana de Guadalajara (México), where she studies engineering in biotechnology. She is interested in working with microorganisms useful to clean polluted water and to implement such technologies in poor and rural communities. Another of her goals is to share her knowledge with other and provide training in water issues in marginalized communities.
