Chemistry professor awarded two fellowships to support sabbatical research in Germany
August 26, 2011
Professor Robert Bachman has received two fellowships totaling approximately $16,000 in support of his sabbatical research visit to the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany. The first award, a three-month fellowship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, is a renewal of the fellowship Bachman first held as a postdoctoral researcher in 1994. The second award is a two-month grant from the German Academic Exchange Service available to faculty researchers making extended visits to Germany. Both awards were given on the basis of a competitive research proposal and Bachman’s reputation as a scholar.
