Meet Our 2007 Recipient

Nam Sun Wang, associate professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering, is this year’s recipient of the Clark School Faculty Service Award. Wang served as the main faculty advisor for the Chemical Engineering and Bioengineering Society graduate student group chapter. He has also served as advisor for the American Institute of Chemical Engineers student chapter, on the Undergraduate Studies Committee and as a liaison to the Professional Masters Program. Wang was director for undergraduate studies in his department for 10 years as well. He has devoted more than 10 years to “K-12” outreach—one colleague remarks he has spent untold hours talking about engineering at middle schools and high schools. Colleagues note he is an eager volunteer whenever help is needed.
