Ralph G. Anderson enshrined into Kentucky Aviation Hall of Fame

Anderson, a 1950 UK mechanical engineering graduate and founder of Belcan Corporation, was one of three inducted in a formal ceremony held in Lexington on Oct. 19. 

After receiving his bachelor's degree from UK 40 in 1983, Sujit Sinha returned more than 40 years later to become the first to earn a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering.

UK grad ‘soars back’ after 40 years, becoming 1st to earn Ph.D. in aerospace engineering

“When I started at UK almost 45 years ago, I could not have imagined in my mind — nor even in any theoretical parallel universe — that I would be getting an aerospace Ph.D. from here,” Sinha said. “Much less to be the first recipient of the degree with an aerospace major. When you get older, you start to think about legacy, and this is a legacy that will endure.”
