Norman S. Stoloff Research Excellence Award
This award recognizes two graduate students in our department each year who publish the most significant research papers that year. It was established by the Stoloff family in memory of Prof. Norman S. Stoloff, a distinguished professor and internationally renowned researcher in the Rensselaer Materials Science and Engineering department for over thirty years, who passed away on Feb 21, 2013. The recipients of this award each present a half-hour seminar in a special event of the graduate student seminar series.
