The National Academy of Engineering has announced the election of 67 new members, and public university engineering professors and researchers account for 27 of the new members; another 28 come from private industry, one from the U.S. Air Force, and 11 from private universities.
Michigan, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UT Austin, and UW Madison all had multiple inductees.
In addition, there are 11 associate members from foreign universities and private industry.
“Election to membership is one of the highest professional honors accorded an engineer,” according to the NAE. “Members have distinguished themselves in business and academic management, in technical positions, as university faculty, and as leaders in government and private engineering organizations. ”
The NAE operates under the same congressional act of incorporation that established the National Academy of Sciences, signed in 1863 by President Lincoln.
