CoE faculty named University Faculty Scholars
The Office of the Provost has added four CoE faculty members to its list of University Faculty Scholars in honor of their outstanding performance.
The following faculty were named to five-year terms that begin in fall 2017:
- Zhihong Chen, associate professor of electrical and computer engineering
- Inseok Hwang, professor of aeronautics and astronautics
- Xiulin Ruan, associate professor of mechanical engineering
- Satish Ukkusuri, professor of civil engineering
The scholars program recognizes outstanding faculty at the West Lafayette campus who are on an accelerated path for academic distinction. To be eligible for consideration, faculty must hold the rank of tenured associate or full professor, and have been in that rank for no more than five years. University Faculty Scholars are appointed for a nonrenewable five-year term and receive an annual $10,000 discretionary allocation.
