Wichita State University has named three distinguished scholars to hold endowed professorships in the College of Engineering, College of Health Professions and Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the WSU Foundation announced.
The professorships were established through the generous contributions of friends and supporters of Wichita State. Endowed professorships are one of the highest academic honors a university can bestow on a faculty member.
