The ACI Foundation awarded the first Middle East Fellowship to Nancy Kachouh for the 2019-2020 academic year, and she felt honored to be the recipient. “As the winner of the first Middle East Fellowship, I received an educational stipend for buying books, new software, and materials that will help me finish my PhD studies,” says Kachouh. “I was also recognized in Concrete International magazine and by the ACI Foundation and received an invitation to attend the ACI Concrete Convention in Québec City, Canada, which was one of the most exciting and interesting experiences in my life.” Kachouh is highly motivated to serve the design and construction community. “After receiving my bachelor’s degree in mathematics, I decided to continue my studies in civil engineering,” says Kachouh. “My dad was a contractor and worked in the field of engineering in Lebanon. He inspired me, and I love civil engineering firstly because of him. I saw him involved in projects, dealing with engineers, so he transmitted a passion for construction and engineering to me.” Read the full feature article about Nancy Kachouh in the January 2020 issue of Concrete International.
