By present- ing these individuals with tokens of excellence, the Society brings the character and importance of the engineer’s work to the attention of the public. Accordingly, it is one of the major purposes of the Society to recognize engineering excellence through the Honors and Awards Program and to provide the forum for their exposition. Society honors and awards recognize a wide variety of accomplish- ments. Some awards are based on contributions to engineering liter- ature; others recognize general achievements in the advancement of engineering. Some are awarded for outstanding accomplishments by a young engineer beginning a career, others for distinguished service throughout a lifetime. Still others recognize contributions by outstanding Student Members. Honors and Award are bestowed by authority of the Board of Gover- nors, and certificates are signed by the President and Executive Director. The Honors and Awards Program is funded through the ASME Foundation by individual awards and endowment funds, not through member dues. The pages that follow describe all society honors and awards presented in 2014 and give information about the recipients. Many awards were presented at the Society’s meetings and conferences throughout the year, and others will be presented during the 2014 International Mechanical Engineering Congress, November 14–20, in Montreal, Canada.
