Eight Ph.D. students at Missouri University of Science and Technology were awarded dean’s honors from the university’s College of Engineering and Computing (CEC) during a May 11 ceremony at the Havener Center.
Two of the students received the Dean’s Graduate Educator Award in recognition of excellence in teaching, and six were honored with the Dean’s Ph.D. Scholar Award, which recognizes research contributions to the college.
A geology and geophysics professor at Missouri S&T joined an elite group, as she became the seventh person selected to win the Medal for Excellence in Education from the AASP – The Palynological Society since the award was launched in 1999.
“I feel honored to be recognized with this medal, as it is a testament to the students I have been privileged to mentor,” says Dr. Francisca Oboh-Ikuenobe, professor of geology and geophysics and associate dean for academic affairs in the S&T College of Engineering and Computing. “This award is really all about my students. It would not have been possible without them.”
