Professor Dubé‚ a native of Welland, Ontario, Canada, received his Ph.D. from the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo in 1995. His studies were focused on multicomponent polymerization kinetics and modelling.
He joined the faculty at the University of Ottawa in 1996 and was Department Chair from 2006 to 2011. He served as Vice-Dean Research for the Faculty from 2015 to 2020. Prof. Dubé is a Professional Engineer registered in Ontario, is a Fellow of the Chemical Institute of Canada and a Fellow of the Engineering Institute of Canada.
Dr. Dubé's expertise lies in polymer reaction engineering applied to kinetics, polymer characterization, modeling, and process monitoring for multicomponent bulk, solution and emulsion polymer systems. Recent applications of his work have been in the area of polymers from renewable materials and sustainable polymer production methods for pressure sensitive adhesives.
