Awardees of the College of Engineering Outstanding Graduate Teaching Award and the College of Engineering Outstanding Graduate Research Award were selected by faculty members of the student’s department based on the student’s exemplary record in the classroom or laboratory, the contributions made in mentoring graduate students, or significant accomplishments in furthering research and scholarship. Awardees of the College of Engineering Leadership Award for MS students were nominated by faculty members of the student’s department based on strong leadership skills demonstrated throughout the program through participation in experiential learning, research, coursework, student committees, and/or student groups; and because the student demonstrated characteristics of leadership excellence, embodied the College of Engineering’s core values, and made an exceptional contribution to the academic programs during the student’s time at Northeastern
