He recently received the 2023 Honorary Doctorate from University of Oklahoma. \nIn appreciation of institutions\, organizations\, communities and people who supported and enabled him he has given back to make a difference in the lives of many. Ronnie created and funded the Ronnie K Irani Center for Energy Solutions in the College of Engineering at OU; RKI Center for Creation of Economic Wealth in Price College of Business; RKI Center for Data Analytics and AI at Oklahoma City University.
