| Media Release John Mander elected Fellow of IPENZ John Mander, Professor of Structural Engineering, University of Canterbury, was elected a Fellow of The Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ) for his contribution to the advancement of engineering knowledge; specifically recognising his research leadership in developing pre-cast concrete wall and frame structures with reduced likelihood of damage in severe earthquakes. John has published widely as a leading structural engineering academic
for about 15 years, and brings to his research a strong belief in the
need to develop fundamental physical understanding of the processes at
work so that design methods can be improved. He does this in such a way
that engineering practitioners can easily engage with him and debate the
impacts of his research on their practice. He is an active academic in
all senses of the word, contributing to development of teaching programmes
and wider activities of the University.
