ASEE Awards Program Nomination Information


Who May Nominate

Nominations must be made by ASEE members for the major awards that are listed here. However, current members of the ASEE Awards Policy Committee and the award selection committees are excluded as nominators and/or as candidates for any award under their purview. Any exceptions are stated under the applicable award.

Eligibility

Membership in ASEE is not an eligibility requirement for the awards described here. Any exceptions are noted under specific awards, such as the Distinguished Service Citation.

How to Nominate

In general, all award nominations must include a nomination form, citation, nomination rationale statement, and curriculum vitae as well as evidence of accomplishments and supporting letters of recommendation. However, some awards have specific nomination requirements. Please refer to the award descriptions for any special instructions.

Nomination Forms

  • Electronic Awards Nomination Form
    ASEE Membership is a requirement for nominating someone for an award. This link will take you to the Member Login page, which is required to access the electronic awards nomination form. Use this form to submit nominations for all ASEE National Awards; the Section Outstanding Teaching Award; the John Leland Atwood Award; the Glenn Murphy Award; the Ralph Coats Roe Award; and the Frederick Emmons Terman Award. Also included is the form used to submit supporting letters.

  • Non-Electronic Awards Nomination Form
    Use this form to submit nominations for all awards that are not listed under the Electronic Awards Nomination Form above.

Citation

A brief statement, not to exceed 100 words, giving the major accomplishments for which the award is being made. This will be used if the nominee is selected as the awardees.

Rationale for Nomination

A statement, not to exceed 700 words, on why the candidate is being nominated for the award.

Curriculum Vitae

Degrees earned (university and granting dates); other postgraduate study; record of positions held (starting with most recent and working back, outlining dates for each); publications, including all books, published papers and articles; ASEE activities and offices held; awards, honors and inventions.

Accomplishments (as appropriate)

  • As an educator: Evidence of superior teaching; contributions to improvements in engineering education; high intellectual achievements; effective counseling of students; recognition of colleagues and students; productive collaborations with industry, government or other disciplines, and so on.
  • As a researcher: Evidence of outstanding research ability; recognition for contributions to the advancement of knowledge; introduction of new and improved laboratory techniques and instrumentation; authorship of influential papers, reports and books; acceptance of research results by colleagues in industry, and so on.
  • As an administrator: Evidence of outstanding contributions to education administration, in addition to achievement in teaching and through publications.

Supporting Letters

No more than eight brief supporting letters from colleagues (peers for Lamme Award) and former students should be included with all award nominations.

Nominations should not include voluminous materials, such as exhibits, samples or numerous recommendations of former students. Clear, concise statements of achievements are of more value. Information from public sources such as Who's Who is helpful, but should be supplemented by information as to specific contributions.

Nomination Deadline

All award nominations must be received at ASEE Headquarters no later than January 15th.

Renominations

In general, an individual can be re nominated for two consecutive years after the initial nomination. Subsequent nominations can be made after a one year period. To re nominate, send a re nomination letter along with any updated information to be included with the nomination. Any specific re nomination requirements are listed in the award descriptions.

Award Presentation

All award presentations except the Section Awards and the Frederick Emmons Terman Award, which is presented at the Frontiers in Education Conference, are usually made at the ASEE Annual Conference. Upon notification of selection, the awardees must agree to attend the award ceremony at the ASEE Annual Conference. Otherwise, the award will be given to the next highest candidate who agrees to attend. Exceptions will be made for emergency conditions.
