[Che-student-staff-list] Double Congratulations to Rex Reklaitis!

[Varma, Arvind]

Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to inform that Rex Reklaitis has been selected to receive two prestigious awards this year.  The first is the 2012 AIChE Van Antwerpen Award, which recognizes a chemical engineer for outstanding contributions and service to the Institute. The Van Antwerpen Award is one of two AIChE Board of Directors Awards.  Rex will receive the award at the AIChE Annual Meeting to be held in Pittsburgh during October 28 - November 2, 2012.  His citation reads:  "For exemplary service to AIChE and the chemical engineering profession at large through his editorships of various journals and invaluable service on several professional committees."

Second, Rex has received the Long Term Achievements Award of the Working Party on Computer Aided Process Engineering (CAPE) of the  European Federation of Chemical Engineering.  This award is given once every four years "in recognition of outstanding achievements over an extended period of time to CAPE methods, tools and/or applications for the advancement of science, engineering and technology."

Pl join me in congratulating Rex for these terrific recognitions!

Best,

Arvind
