Larry Erickson, First Center Director

"In 1964, Kansas State University graduated its first Ph.D. student in chemical engineering. He was subsequently hired by the department, and went on to teach and inspire hundreds of students.

Ever advocating for students, supporters and well-wishers are invited to make a gift to the Larry Erickson Fellowship Award, a fund to help offset the costs for educating chemical engineering graduate students."
