[Nov 28, 2021] It was nice to get together again as a division after almost two years of virtual meetings due to the pandemic. The 2021 AIChE Annual Meeting in Boston was a nice opportunity to meet in person after a long time and be able to honor those receiving awards in 2020 and 2021.
Management Award 2021
Dr. Senyo Opong was presented this award in Boston in a session that included excellent presentations and speakers. In addition to the presentation by Senyo Opong, we had presentations by Bill Raiford, Jean Tom, and Markus Scheller. It was a great session and very well attended.

The Management Division dinner in Boston, which is usually shared with the Environmental Division and the Chemical Engineering & the Law Forum, was an opportunity to enjoy a fun time and celebrate award recipients and division volunteers.
Our division Chair, Cristina Thomas, recognized the following 2020 award recipients that were not able to attend this event.
- Scott Klara, Management Award 2020
