TRANSCRIPT
Report to the NSPE Board of Directors NCEES ENGINEERING AWARD COMPETITION
April 17, 2010
At the September 2006 Annual Meeting of the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying, held in Anchorage, Alaska, the Council was asked to vote up or down a proposal to develop a competition among Engineering Schools to recognize excellence in the promotion of understanding the value of licensure through collaborative efforts between engineering students and faculty with practicing professional engineers. As NSPE’s representative at that meeting, I pledged to the Council that I would try to get some funding for the first two years’ development costs, since the proposal went to the heart of what NSPE is all about. The proposal passed, and, subsequently, the NSPE BoD agreed to fund development at 20% of NCEES’s actual costs, with a cap of $5,000 on our outlay. The first annual competition was held in March 2009, and the second was held on March 25, 2010. Past President David Waugh represented NSPE as a judge last year. I was able to represent NSPE as one of the judges this year.
Attached to this report are several documents. • October 12, 2006 letter from NSPE President Robert Miller, PE,
to Louis Raimonde, PE, LS, President of NCEES; • 2010 NCEES Engineering Award winners • NCEES Engineering Award evaluation criteria • NCEES Engineering Award entry requirements • NCEES Award Book
I encourage you to peruse these materials to become aware of the efforts made by
NCEES, as well as the effort required by competing institutions to prepare their submissions. After sitting in on a full day of deliberation with the other nine judges, I am in extreme awe of the outcomes of this ongoing project. The judging panel consists of four NCEES members (one per NCEES zone), four engineering deans, (one per NCEES zone), and one representative each from ABET, the American Society for Engineering Education, the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Society of Professional Engineers. Notably, NSPE is the only professional society representing all of Professional Engineering to be invited into this group of judges. We should be very proud of the honor. In closing discussions after the award winners had been chosen, there was discussion of how to expand the field of competition. I am hopeful that NSPE may be able to assist in some way. Respectfully submitted, Bernard R. Berson, PE, LS, F.NSPE
Item 16.8 Attachment
October 12,2006
Louis A. Raimondi, P.E., L.S. President National Council of Examiners for Engineering & Surveying P.O. Box 1686 Clemson, SC 29633-1686
1 Dear President Raimondi:
At its meeting on September 30,2006, the Board of Directors of the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) voted unanimously to offer its support toward the implementation of the NCEES Practice in Engineering Education Award.
NSPE President-elect Bernard R. Berson, P.E., L.S., F.NSPE attended the NCEES 2006 Annual Meeting in Anchorage where the concept for this award was presented, and he relayed to our Board how closely this initiative aligns with the vision and mission of our organization.
Specifically, the NSPE Board voted to provide financial support for the Practice in Engineering Education Award through year one and year two by offering 20 percent of the actual dedicated expense up to a maximum of $5,000 per year.
It would be most greatly appreciated if NCEES could advise when the Award process will begin so that we can integrate this fimding into our budget process.
On behalf of the National Society of Professional Engineers, we are honored for the opportunity to support this vital &d timely initiative that rewards the efforts of the licensed engineering community as it works to introduce and expose students to the practical real world applications of engineering.
Our very best wishes are with NCEES as it begins implementation of this program. Please let us know how else we may offer assistance.
Sincerely, n
Robert S. Miller, 111, P.E., F.NSPE President

2010 NCEES Engineering Award winners The University of Delaware Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering is the grand prize winner of the 2010 NCEES Engineering Award for Connecting Professional Practice and Education. The award jury met March 25, 2010, in Clemson, S.C., to select the $25,000 grand prize winner.
The department received the prize for its submission, Pomeroy Trail East Annex. For the project, student teams competed to win a commission and perform the preliminary engineering for an expansion of a multi-user trail system in their city. The teams worked with engineering mentors from professional practice to consider drainage and environmental upgrades, wastewater system improvements, reevaluation of a proposed groundwater remediation program, and associated infrastructure improvements.
The jury praised the project for its "excellent integration of real-world experience in an educational setting."
Additional winners The jury selected five additional winners to receive awards of $7,500.
• California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo Civil and Environmental Engineering Department Bridging the Gap between Theory and Practice through Capstone Design
• California State University, Los Angeles Department of Civil Engineering Connecting Practice with Education through Civil Engineering Capstone Experience: Puddingstone Reservoir Operations Level Study
• Clemson University Holcombe Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Engineering Haptic Virtual Manipulatives to Enhance K-12 Math and Science Education
• University of Maryland Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Engineers Without Borders: Solar Recharge Project in Burkina Faso, Africa
• University of New Mexico Department of Civil Engineering Integration of Civil Engineering and Construction Management Education: A Multi-disciplinary, Mentor-led Capstone
NCEES Engineering Award evaluation criteria The jury will consider the following criteria when judging the projects:
• Successful collaboration of faculty, students, and professional engineers
• Benefit to health, safety, and welfare of the public
• Impact on raising social consciousness
• Impact of partnering teaching and professional practice
• Multidiscipline and/or allied profession participation
• Knowledge or skills gained
• Viability of technology used
• Effectiveness of abstract and project description
• Effectiveness of display board
NCEES Engineering Award JuryThe jury is composed of 12 representatives of academia and professional engineering associations:
• 4 NCEES members, 1 per NCEES zone
• 4 engineering deans, 1 per NCEES zone
• 1 representative each from
o ABET
o American Society for Engineering Education
o National Academy of Engineering

A project may not relate to all of these criteria (for example, it may not involve multidiscipline participation). In this case, please indicate in that section that the project did not address that area.
A project previously submitted for the NCEES Engineering Award may be resubmitted if it demonstrates substantial new development. For a resubmission, include an additional section in the project description explaining how the project has been further developed:
Section IX: Development since previous submission
Display boardA visual presentation of the project should be mounted on one 30” X 30” foam core board. The display board may include text and/or graphics.
Electronic files• A CD containing electronic copies of the display poster, abstract, and project description must be
