Michigan Engineering Honors 17 Alumni

Alumni share memories and activities throughout Alumni Weekend and the highlight of the weekend is always the Alumni Society Awards Dinner, which honors those alumni who personify Michigan Engineering's tradition of excellence and who have achieved significant accomplishments in their professional lives.
