Academy membership honors those who have made outstanding contributions in at least one of the following categories: “engineering practice, research, or education”, “pioneering of new and developing fields of technology, major advancements in traditional fields of engineering, or development/implementation of innovative approaches to engineering education” or “engineering leadership of one or more major endeavors.” NAE members are among the world’s most accomplished engineers from business, academia, and government. Founded in 1964, the NAE provides independent, objective analysis and advice to the nation, offering leadership and insights for a complex world. Elected by their peers, the ballot for this class was set in December and the final vote took place in January.
Individuals in the newly elected class will be formally inducted during the NAE’s Annual Meeting on Oct. 5, 2025.
