This presentation brings together five former PhD. students and postdoctoral researchers of Prof. L.S. Fan, the recipient of the 2022 Warren K. Lewis Award for Chemical Engineering Education. Through his mentorship, Professor Fan has had a significant impact on the careers of many successful engineers across multiple disciplines. In our presentation, we will share our individual perspectives on his unique approach to engineering education and research. We will reflect on the key lessons we learned from him and discuss the ways in which his mentorship has shaped our own academic careers. Our presentation will also highlight how we have incorporated his teachings into our own work, and how we have benefited from his guidance in our professional and personal lives. Ultimately, we hope to inspire the next generation of engineers to strive for excellence and contribute to the advancement of the field.
