Abstract
Some of the achievements of Pablo Debenedetti as a scholar, an educator, and an academic administrator, garnering several recognized distinctions, are discussed. He continued to be a significant mentor to many undergraduates, graduate students, and younger colleagues at Princeton University. He enrolled at the University of Buenos Aires, Brazil after graduating from school. He began his studies in industrial engineering and switched to chemical engineering, graduating with the degree Ingeniero Qulmico in 1978. He obtained a position as a process development engineer with the De Nora Company in Milan, Italy after becoming a chemical engineer. He left De Nora, and entered the Chemical Engineering Department at MIT in 1980 to pursue a Master's degree. He decided to stay at MIT to pursue a Ph.D. with the renowned thermodynamicist, Professor Robert (Bob) Reid.
