Dear Colleagues:

Each year, UConn Engineering recognizes individuals who have helped us in profound ways.  Since 1983, we have paid special tribute to:

  • Exceptionally distinguished alumni whose career achievements are of an enduring seminal nature (Distinguished Professional Achievement Award – Alumni);
  • Dedicated individuals who have made dramatic and enduring contributions to our School (Distinguished Engagement Award – non-alumni); and
  • The GOLD Rising Star Award (alumni who graduated less from 10 years ago).

In 2023, we will mark our 40th year the School has inducted Distinguished Engineers into the Academy of Distinguished Engineers.   Please assist us in identifying superb nominees for these awards; self-nominations are also welcome.
