Although Mrs. Dora Hernandez will leave the job but she will always be remembered for her hard work, dedication and knowledge which were an integral part of success of our professional activities. She will certainly be a hard act to follow. We at Energy Systems Research Laboratory group would like to thank you for all your help and effort in bringing success to Energy Systems Research Laboratory and College of Engineering & Computing.
We wish you best of luck for all your future endeavors.
