Youssef was the only visiting student to win a prize in the 2012-13 academic year.\u00a0 The prize was awarded by the Head of the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at Queen\u2019s University Belfast, Dr. Mark Price, in a ceremony held on 5July 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Youssef\u2019s project analyzed the dimensional changes of composite panels during the riveting process. The latter is a new technological process in the aeronautical Industry allowing the use of innovative materials which increase the efficiency of new commercial aircrafts.
