Arthur C. Heinricher Jr., assistant professor of mathematics, was recently selected to receive the Harold J. Gay Professorship in Mathematics. Heinricher, who joined the faculty in 1992, earned a B.S. in applied mathematics at the University of Missouri and a Ph.D. in mathematics at Carnegie Mellon University.

The Harold J. Gay Chair in Mathematical Sciences was established in 1971 to honor the Professor Gay, who taught at WPI from 1919 to 1947. The two-year award, which carries a professional development stipend, recognized younger faculty members who have demonstrated potential for achievement in mathematics.
