Engineers as Leaders in Research and Management


The Engineers as Leaders in Research and Management Centennial Conference is one reunion event engineers should not miss. This Centennial Conference kicks off reunion weekend celebrations beginning at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, May 31, and running throughout the day, including a reunion lunch.

Sponsored by the School of Engineering and Applied Science and the Graduate School, the conference will feature distinguished graduate alumni of SEAS who are at the forefront of major developments in modern science and technology. Topics will include creating, applying, and commercializing technology in electronics, information, bioengineering, and nano-structured materials; scientific experiments in space; and engineering in a sustainable world.

"This day is an excellent opportunity to catch a glimpse of the excitement in engineering today," said Sankaran Sundaresan, associate dean for academic affairs, professor of chemical engineering, and coorganizer of the conference.

Interested participants are asked to register for the Engineers as Leaders in Research and Management Centennial Conference. While there is no charge for attending, registration is requested to ensure adequate seating and lunch provisions. Register by e-mail at: seasconf@princeton.edu, or by calling (609) 258-2742.
