Assistant Professors Kayla Sprenger and Ankur Gupta were selected for the prestigious AICHE “35 Under 35” award.

A team led by ChBE Professor Hendrik Heinz won a $2 million National Science Foundation award to develop reliable predictive models for hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites, which have the potential to usher in more efficient and affordable solar energy.

The Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering continues to gain national recognition for the quality of its undergraduate school education, earning the No. 14 spot in the U.S. News and World Report's Best School rankings for chemical engineering among public institutions for 2024.

Distinguished Professor Kristi Anseth was selected by the Office of Postdoctoral Affairs as the 2023 Outstanding Postdoc Mentor of the Year Award recipient.

Current and former members of the Heinz Research Group have earned prestigious NASA Group Achievement Awards for their research centered on designing lightweight, high-strength materials aimed at reducing the costs of spaceflights. 

Keala Gapin, a chemical and biological engineering senior, received a 2023 scholarship from the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation, an organization founded by the Mercury 7 astronauts.
