Dr. McCurry completed his Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering with a Chemistry minor at Stanford in 2016. Prior to Stanford, he earned an M.S. in Environmental Engineering from Yale and a B.S. in Civil Engineering from the University of Cincinnati, and worked in the USEPA Office of Research and Development. Dr. McCurry's research focuses on protecting public health by improving the long-term safety of engineered water sources. He applies the tools of environmental organic chemistry to water quality problems arising from chemical and ultraviolet disinfection of wastewater and drinking water.
