CBE Centennial Endowment Fund
Endowments have a lasting impact on our department than any other type of gift. They can help us attract top talent and they drive the department’s rise in national rankings. The CBE Centennial Endowment Fund will serve as a source of discretionary funds for the department to advance its vision of being a global leader in chemical and biomolecular engineering as it enters its second century, including scholarships, faculty support, undergraduate and graduate awards, experiential learning opportunities, research, and outreach.

Chemical Engineering Fund
This supports a diverse range of department activities. These unrestricted funds are particularly helpful in meeting the department’s needs and achieving its goals.
Kit (Ching-Kit) Yeung Endowment
This endowment honors the legacy of Ching-Kit Yeung and his contributions to the NCSU Chemical Engineering Department where he served as the Specialty Trade Technician for over thirty years (1985 – 2016). He was referred to as a “Technical Wizard” for his innovative and troubleshooting skills to repair, rebuild, and design research equipment expediently. With his ingenuity and hard-working ethics, he ensured the safety, precision, and longevity of equipment while minimizing costs. His inventions were foundational to advancing the careers of many PhD students and professors. This endowment was established by his wife, Chuu-Ni, and daughters, Yeu-Li and Shin-Yiing.
Lisa G. Bullard Undergraduate Enhancement Fund
This supports the activities that enhance the experience of undergrad chemical engineering students. Dr. Bullard is the current director of undergraduate studies and earned her B.S. ChE from NC State in 1985.
Richard M. Felder Teaching Excellence Endowment
This honors Dr. Felder, who not only made an enormous impact on the students at NC State during his thirty years of teaching, but who has been one of the preeminent chemical engineering educators in the country. The endowment enables the selection of an annual faculty recipient of the Richard M. Felder Teaching Excellence Award and is designed to demonstrate the department’s commitment to excellence in teaching and to promote and honor faculty excellence in teaching.
Lisa Bullard CBE Student Scholarship Fund
This supports students with critical unmet needs. The flexibility of the scholarship gives the department the capacity to be more responsive and better support our students through challenges they face.
