Dr. Zi-Kui Liu has been selected to receive the Dorothy Pate Enright Professorship. This is an endowed professorship that was gifted to the department by our late alumna Dorothy Pate Enright. Dorothy received her M.S. in Ceramic Science in 1948 and went on to have a productive career in the oil and gas industry at a time when there were few women working in this field. Dorothy was featured in the Alumni Spotlights for a MatSE newsletter on the Department website.
The full story on the award can be found in the article Zi-Kui Liu named inaugural Dorothy Pate Enright Professor on the Penn State News website.
