In 2003, ASHRAE created the very successful New Faces of Engineering program aimed at young engineers under the age of 35. New Faces: College Edition is ASHRAE’s legacy project for 2011 as the chairing society of Engineers Week.
The program recognizes outstanding junior or senior (defined as third, fourth or fifth year) ASHRAE members enrolled in a Bachelor of Science in Engineering program from an ABET Accredited school who are proving themselves to be leaders in the field of engineering.
ASHRAE’s New Face of Engineering is recognized in a full-page ad in the ASHRAE Journal and has their profile featured on the New Faces of Engineering: College Edition's Facebook page. ASHRAE also awards a $1000 scholarship to the winner.
Application will open Sept. 6 of each year and close Oct. 20. Applicants must “like” the New Faces of Engineering: College Edition Facebook page in order to apply.
