INAE YOUNG ENGINEER AWARD ‑
2008
Preamble
Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE) was
established in 1987 to promote the advancement of and excellence in the
practice of engineering and technology and the related sciences and
disciplines. It is a 'peer' body of the most distinguished engineers from the
entire spectrum of engineering profession in the Government, R&D Laboratories,
Academia and Industry.
The Academy undertakes programmes on technology
policy issues of national concern and recommends measures for appropriate
action by policy makers, planners and administrators for the overall
development of the country. One of the objectives of the Academy is to
encourage inventions, scientific investigations and research to promote their
application for development of all sectors of national economy.
With a view to promoting the pursuit of excellence
in the field of 'Engineering', the Academy instituted the INAE "Young Engineer
Award" in 1996. The selection for this prestigious Award is made by a
