Glasgow, PhD, is Professor of Chemical Engineering at Kansas State University. His research interests include fluid mechanics, with an emphasis on multiphase phenomena in turbulence. He has taught many core courses in chemical engineering, especially both undergraduate and graduate courses in transport phenomena.  Dr. Glasgow's skills and enthusiasm for teaching have been recognized repeatedly, including the James Hollis Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching, the Commerce Bank Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award, the Segebrecht Distinguished Faculty Achievement Award, the Snell Distinguished Career Award, and the Charles H.
