Moreover, he is a member of the Royal Belgian Academy of Technical Sciences, a National RPGE Chair Professor at Tongji University (Shanghai) and President of ie-net Society of Engineers. Since 2006 he serves as Editor-in-chief of the fib journal "Structural Concrete". He received awards from RILEM, IABSE, fib, ACI and IIFC. Dan Frangopol is the inaugural holder of the Fazlur R. Khan Endowed Chair of Structural Engineering and Architecture at Lehigh University. Before joining Lehigh University in 2006, he was Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he is now Professor Emeritus. He is recognized as a leader in the field of life-cycle engineering of civil and marine structures. He is the Founding President of the International Associations for Bridge Maintenance and Safety (IABMAS) and Life-Cycle Civil Engineering (IALCCE). He is the Founding Editor of Structure and Infrastructure Engineering. He is the recipient of several prestigious awards from ASCE, IABSE, IASSAR, and other professional organizations. He holds 4 honorary doctorates and 12 honorary professorships from major universities.
