Bruce Parkinson is a Professor Emeritus for the School of Energy Resources. 

 

Formerly the J.E. Warren Professor of Energy and Environment in UW’s Department of Chemistry and the School of Energy Resources, Parkinson taught courses in renewable and advanced energy.

 

Parkinson’s research covers a wide range of areas including electrochemistry, materials chemistry, nanomaterials, photoelectrochemistry on the surface of Mars and membrane applications of new two-dimensional organic framework materials.

 

Before joining the UW faculty in 2008, Parkinson was a professor of chemistry at Colorado State University. Before that, he was a research chemist for DuPont Central Research and Development. He also was a senior scientist at the Solar Energy Research Institute — now known as the National Renewable Energy Laboratory — where he worked on solar energy conversion.

 

Parkinson is a fellow of both ECS and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 2015, he received the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Research Award. He has more than 260 publications in peer-reviewed journals and holds five U.S. patents. 

 

Parkinson earned his bachelor’s degree in chemistry from Iowa State University (1972) and his Ph.D. in chemistry from the California Institute of Technology (1977).
