November 20, 2012

Dr. Mark Horstemeyer, professor of Mechanical Engineering and CAVS Chair in Solid Mechanics, has been elected Fellow of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). SAE bestows Fellow status on members “who have made a significant impact on society’s mobility technology through leadership, research, and innovation.”

According to the SAE website, the grade of Fellow, established in 1975, is administered by the SAE Fellow Committee. Election to Fellow is an exceptional professional distinction bestowed on around 20 recipients each year. A distinctive Fellow pin is presented to the new Fellow at the annual Fellow dinner and a framed Fellow certificate is presented during the SAE Awards Ceremony. Both functions are held at the SAE World Congress and Exposition.
