[edit] Education and career
Dr. Whittingham received his B.A., M.A. and D.Phil from Oxford University in 1964, 1967 and 1968, respectively. All of his degrees are in chemistry[1].
After completing his graduate studies, Dr. Whittingham was a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University until 1972. He then worked for Exxon Research & Engineering Company from 1972 until 1984. He then spent four years workin for Schlumberger proir to becoming a professor at Binghamton University.[2]
For several years, he served as the University’s vice provost for research and outreach.[3]
