This award recognizes undergraduate or graduate students who demonstrate exceptional technical expertise through their participation in SAE’s university programs.
Students receive this award based on exceeding expected results in technological areas such as, but not limited to, efficiency or powertrain performance during their SAE university program competition.
This award was made possible by a generous gift from Garrett and honors Cliff Garrett, a distinguished authority in turbomachinery engineering who inspired countless engineers through his example, support and many contributions as an aerospace pioneer.
Because this award is based on performance in an SAE university program, nominations are not accepted.
This includes an honorarium and an award that is presented during an SAE university program competition.
