Retired civil engineering professor Inder J. Bhambri and his wife, Prabha K. Bhambri, have donated $200,000 to the University of the District of Columbia (UDC) Foundation to support students in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS).
The donation will establish the Dr. Inder J. Bhambri Civil Engineering Scholarship, with $100,000 contributed by each of them.
“Dr. Bhambri’s commitment to and belief in UDC cannot be overstated,” UDC president Maurice D. Edington said, adding, “After investing in our students’ success for decades, he’s back at it again—this time generously providing support so that future Firebirds can pursue their professional dreams.”
Bhambri, who earned his doctorate in civil engineering from The Catholic University of America in 1971, joined UDC in 1970. He dedicated 46 years to UDC as a professor, researcher, and community leader, helping to establish the university’s civil engineering laboratories.
SEAS dean Devdas Shetty praised Bhambri as a “dedicated servant leader,” acknowledging his instrumental role in shaping the university’s civil engineering program.
