RJR Award

The R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company Award for Excellence in Teaching, Research and Extension was established in 1981 within the College of Engineering to honor a member of the engineering faculty who has demonstrated superiority in several areas of activity that relate to the University’s three-fold mission of teaching, research and extension. The annual award is supported by the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company through the NC State Engineering Foundation to recognize scientific and educational achievements in fields of engineering. The recipient is given a $25,000 prize distributed over five years.

Dr. Richard J. Spontak, Distinguished Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (CBE) at North Carolina State University, is the thirty-eighth recipient of the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company Award for Excellence in Teaching, Research and Extension. Spontak gave his award lecture titled, “Water-Activated Materials to Mitigate Growing Global Challenges” at an award ceremony held in the Talley Student Center on NC State’s campus.

Alcoa Award

This annual awards program was established with support from the Alcoa Foundation in 1978 to encourage basic or applied research or research in original design. The Alcoa Foundation Distinguished Engineering Research Award is made to a senior faculty member for research achievements over a period of at least five years at NC State. The Alcoa Foundation Engineering Research Achievement Award is intended to recognize young faculty who have accomplished outstanding research achievements during the preceding three years.

Ismail Güvenç, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), and Milad Abolhasani, associate professor in the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (CBE), are recipients of the 2023 Alcoa Foundation Engineering Research Awards.
