Honors

Faculty and students in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering have been widely recognized for their success.

Highly Decorated

Faculty in the department have received a breadth of prestigious awards. In 2011, Phillip Westmoreland was elected to serve the American Institute of Chemical Engineers in three linked capacities: president-elect (2012), president (2013), and past president (2014). Four faculty are members of the National Academy of Engineering: Ruben Carbonell, 2014; Joseph DeSimone, 2005; Keith Gubbins, 1989; and Carol Hall, 2005, as were three deceased faculty members: Warren L. McCabe, 1977; Alan S. Michaels, 1979; and Vivian T. Stannett, 1995. Joe DeSimone is also a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Medicine. Very few people have ever been members of both Academies and the Institute.
