ME Oregon Staters

In 1998, the College of Engineering launched the annual Oregon Stater awards as a way to honor outstanding alumni and friends of the OSU College of Engineering. These awards come in three categories:

• Engineering Hall of Fame - for Oregon Staters who have made sustained and meritorious engineering and/or managerial contributions throughout their careers.
• Academy of Distinguished Engineers - for mid-career Oregon Staters who have sustained distinguished contributions to the profession, field, OSU, or society at large. They have at least 20 years of experience beyond the BS and are still practicing their profession.
• Council of Outstanding Early Career Engineers - for Oregon Staters with less than 20 years of professional experience beyond the BS who have made career contributions that identify them as future leaders in their profession or field.

All ME Oregon Stater awardees to date are listed below, alphabetically by award category and with years of graduation and award receipt. Click on a name to view the accompanying Oregon Stater biography.
