INDIANAPOLIS — The Asphalt Pavement Association of Indiana (APAI) has named Trine University students Jacob Barkey of Auburn, Indiana, Delaney Keirn of Claypool, Indiana, Hannah Murray of Shelbyville, Indiana, Derek Miller of Shipshewana, Indiana, and Lance Williamson of Decatur, Indiana, as 2020 APAI Scholars.
The five civil engineering students were recognized as scholarship recipients during the 2020 APAI Virtual Winter Conference on Dec. 16.
Scholarships are awarded by the APAI Scholarship Committee to students studying construction management, civil engineering and construction engineering and management at six nationally accredited Indiana universities, including Trine. Students must complete an in-person interview with members of the Scholarship Committee to receive an award. The total amount of scholarships awarded in 2020 by the association totaled $40,000 to deserving scholars, in anticipation that many recipients will remain in Indiana and seek employment opportunities with APAI's member contractors.
Students in Trine University’s Capstone in Sport Management class won their second National Collegiate Sports Sales Championship (NCSSC) showcase event of the fall, then went on to place in the national Super Showcase.
Trine University chemical engineering graduate Parker Reichhart has earned national recognition, receiving two awards in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) Annual Student Design Competition. The awards were presented during the 2025 Annual Student Conference, held Nov. 1–4 in Boston, Massachusetts.
Amanda Malefyt, Ph.D., professor in the McKetta Department of Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering at Trine University, has been elected to serve as a director within the Education Division of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), beginning her four-year term this month.
