Dear ESD community members,
Made possible by a generous gift from Mr. Joseph A. Martore (MIT 1975), we are seeking nominations for the Joseph A. Martore (MIT 1975) Award for Exceptional Contributions to Engineering Systems Education for academic year 2011-2012. Nominations for academic year 2012 are due September 28, 2012. Details about eligibility (which has just been expanded!) and the nomination format are in the attached call for nominations.
This honor will be given to an ESD community member or group in recognition of outstanding contributions in engineering systems education over the past academic year.
“The thought behind the award was to recognize the leadership role that MIT ESD faculty, staff and students … serve in preparing and influencing students to make real world engineering contributions to society,” said Martore, who received both an SB and an SM in civil engineering from MIT.
The award will be presented at the Brunel Lecture on Complex Systems during the Fall term. The honoree will receive a plaque of appreciation and a cash award of $1000.
If you know of someone or several someones who have made a positive impact on Engineering Systems education during the last academic year – give them their due and nominate them!
Thank you,
-Beth
