Two of the awards 카지노 게임 컬렉션 Barrington Batchelor and Carolyn Small 카지노 게임 컬렉션 were awarded posthumously. Both Dr. Batchelor and Dr. Small were pioneers in their fields and left a lasting impact both at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s and the broader engineering community.

[Barington Batchelor]Dr. Batchelor카지노 게임 컬렉션s 27-year career in the Department of Civil Engineering was marked by his pioneering research, his commitment to excellence, and his dedication to equity in race relations. Born in Jamaica and educated at the 카지노게임사이트 of Edinburgh and Imperial College London, Dr. Batchelor was one of the first faculty members of African descent in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. His work on bridge deck design was transformative in the industry and was a driving force behind Ontario developing its own bridge design code. Dr. Batchelor also served as an important adviser on race relations and diversity, both at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s and nationally. He personally mentored many faculty members from diverse cultures and had a particularly warm spot for international students. 

[Carolyn Small]Dr. Small (Sc카지노 게임 컬렉션73) was a pioneer for women in engineering at Queen's. She was the first female graduate from Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s Engineering to be appointed to the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and was a leader in biomedical research, curriculum development, and the teaching of mechanical engineering design. She was known for her innovative approaches to teaching and research. Among her proudest accomplishments was the development of an engineering course in design techniques that challenged students카지노 게임 컬렉션 creativity and critical thinking. Her course MECH 212 became one of the department카지노 게임 컬렉션s flagship courses and was, in later years, a foundation for the current design program in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Dr. Small's collaborative spirit helped guide the Human Mobility Research Centre, which has become renowned for interdisciplinary research for innovative treatment strategies for bone and joint disorders. A room at the centre bears her name and is a proud reminder of her contributions to innovation and partnership in design.
