Malcolm McIvor was one of the key people in ICI who
helped establish CPACT in 1997 and he played a prominent role in PhD
supervision during the early stages of CPACT’s activities.
Malcolm enjoyed his engagement with CPACT and has
generously endowed a prize that he wishes to be awarded annually to a
postgraduate student or early career researcher (within 3 years of a PhD) at a
CPACT university/institute or member company in recognition of that researchers
achievement in process analytics and control technologies. The prize will
seek to recognise an individual’s excellence in terms of academic achievement,
creative thinking or engagement between academia and industry. The
value of the prize will be £1,000.
The representatives of the CPACT universities and member
companies are now invited to nominate candidates for the 2024 award following the guidelines. Nominations should be sent to Natalie Kerr (natalie.kerr@strath.ac.uk) as pdf

2024.
