The IFEES Duncan Fraser Global Award for Excellence in Engineering Education recognizes individuals who have made innovative and meritorious contributions with a significant impact on the advancement of engineering education. IFEES encourages nominations of outstanding candidates from all regions of the world.

The 2019 Global Award recipient will be honored in Chennai, during the 2019 World Engineering Education Forum, which will be held from November 13-16. The recipient will receive a medal, citation, a one-time monetary prize of US $1,000, round-trip economy class plane ticket, and three nights lodging to receive the award.

Members of the IFEES community are encouraged to nominate an individual who they believe falls within the criteria of having provided extraordinary leadership and impact in engineering education.

It is not necessary for the nominee to be a member of an IFEES member society; however, the nominator must be the representative of an active IFEES member society. A list of member representatives is available on the member section of our website. The nominator may nominate only one individual for the award.

It is critical that all nominators spend some time providing evidence regarding the measurable impact made by each nominee in the area of engineering education.

Please refer to the nomination guidelines before submitting the nomination form. Guidelines are available in English, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Russian. Nominations must be submitted in English. If you need assistance, have questions, or are unsure of an IFEES member who can endorse your nomination, please contact Hans Jürgen Hoyer.
