is presented to an outstanding educator who, by motivation and an ability to extend beyond traditional teaching methods, has made significant contributions to engineering education. The award is
sponsored by the Xerox Corporation and consists of a $1,000 honorarium and a plaque.
Clement J. Freund Award
The Clement J. Freund Award recognizes an individual in business, industry, government, or education who has made a significant positive
impact on cooperative education programs in engineering and engineering technology. The award was established in 1979 by ASEE's Cooperative Education Division to commemorate its 50th anniversary
and is funded through an endowment provided by Caterpillar Tractor Company, Danly Machine Corporation, Diamond Shamrock Corporation, Dow Chemical U.S.A., John Deere, Sundstrand Corporation, and Union Carbide Corporation. The
award consists of a $2,000 honorarium, travel expenses for the awardee to attend the ASEE Annual Conference to receive the award, a plaque, and a certificate of achievement.
The Clement J. Freund Award goes to Mary Jo Fairbanks, Director of the Cooperative Education Program at the L.C. Smith College of
Engineering and Computer Science at Syracuse University since 1982, for her numerous, significant contributions to engineering cooperative education and for her commitment, dedication, service, and
contributions to ASEE and its Cooperative Education Division.
General Electric Senior Research Award
The General Electric Senior Research Award was established in 1979 by the ASEE Engineering
Research Council and is funded by the General Electric Company. It honors an administrator or a faculty member who has contributed significantly to engineering research, whether by expanding the
frontiers of knowledge, by perfecting and applying the latest scientific advances to engineering problems, or by providing administrative leadership. The award consists of a gold medal, a framed
certificate, and reimbursement of the recipient's travel expenses to the ASEE Annual Conference.
The General Electric Senior Research Award goes to Arthur W. Westerberg, University Swearingen Professor of Chemical Engineering
at Carnegie Mellon University, for his groundbreaking research and lifelong contributions in process systems engineering and multidisciplinary design research. His process systems research
includes accomplishments in process modeling and analysis for equation-based simulation and optimization, including the development of the ASCEND system; in process synthesis for energy integration
and synthesis of azeotropic systems, including the development of the program SPLIT; and in information modeling through the development of the n-dim system. Moreover, his leadership as director of the NSF
Engineering Design Research Center has contributed to the advancement of multidisciplinary engineering design.
Fred Merryfield Design Award
The Fred Merryfield Design Award honors an engineering educator who has exhibited excellence in teaching engineering design and has made significant related contributions. Established in 1981, the award is
sponsored by CH2M Hill. The award consists of a $2,500 honorarium, a $500 stipend for travel to the ASEE Annual Conference, and a plaque. In addition, the awardee's institutional department receives a $500 honorarium.
The Fred Merryfield Design Award goes to Charles M. Lovas, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Southern Methodist
University, for his leadership and enthusiasm in engineering design education. Professor Lovas has written extensively on engineering design education, and produced design guides for undergraduate
engineering classes and for engineers in industry. He has served as a consultant to industry, and has been active in helping others develop design curricula as a leader of seminars and workshops on design for university faculty.
George Westinghouse Award
The George Westinghouse Award is given to a young engineering educator of outstanding ability to recognize and encourage his or her
contributions to improving engineering teaching. The award was established by the Westinghouse Foundation in 1946 and consists of a $5,000 honorarium, a $500 grant for the recipient's travel expenses to the ASEE Annual
