The Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Hall of Fame was established to inspire our current students and to celebrate accomplishments of those extraordinary graduates who have used their education to excel in a profession, career or service. The nomination is based on professional and service, achievement, entrepreneurship and contributions to professional societies.
