Ph.D. Candidates Receive Inaugural John Chen Fellowship

Graduate students Leah Spangler and William Taifan have been named the inaugural recipients of the John C. Chen Endowed Fellowship in Chemical Engineering.

The fellowship for Ph.D. candidates in the department of chemical and biomolecular engineering was established through the generosity of Dr. Katherine L. Chen ’80G to honor her late husband’s memory as a beloved faculty member and ground-breaking researcher and as the one-time department chair of chemical engineering and dean of the P.C. Rossin College of Engineering and Applied Science.
