Norman Epstein Award in Chemical Engineering

Fourth-year undergraduate students in Chemical Engineering at UBC Vancouver who show diligence in the fundamentals of Chemical Engineering, demonstrated through their projects and courses, are eligible for this $1,700 award.

There is no separate application. The award is made on the recommendation of the Department of Chemical Engineering.

The award was established through an endowment by Henry Wakabayashi, his wife Yvonne and their daughters Beth and Wendy to honour Dr. Norman Epstein, Henry's professor in 1958, in appreciation of Dr. Epstein's influence, encouragement and support of his students.
