2002 Walt Rowe Scholarship Awarded

The ICMA 2002 Walt Rowe Scholarship has been awarded to the Friedrich-Alexander Universitat, Erlangnen-Nurenburg, Germany, Department of Mineralogy, under the direction of Dr. Friedlinde Götz-Neunhoeffer. The University of Erlangen has been a strong supporter of ICMA for the past decade contributing professional papers and regularly attending ICMA conferences. The Department of Mineralogy at Erlangen is deeply involved in microscopic research of cement and its hydration products. They were one of the first schools to be involved in the quantitative phase analysis work utilizing the Reitveld principles. ICMA is proud of the relationship with the University of Erlangen. With hopes of many more years of a joint working relationship, ICMA proudly awards the Walt Rowe Scholarship for 2002 to the University of Erlangen, Department of Mineralogy and Dr. Friedlinde Götz-Neunhoeffer.
