Nomination Instructions

Please assemble the nomination package in the following order. These instructions parallel those available on the ASEE National Award Nomination Guidelines. Nominating a member for an award implies that the nominee has been informed and consents to the nomination and conditions of the award.

Do not submit to ASEE headquarters or through their web page.

Submit nominations ELECTRONICALLY following the procedure described below to the ASEE ChE Division Awards Co-Chair, Ashlee Ford Versypt, at ashleefv@buffalo.edu.

Paper submissions will not be accepted.

Nominations should be sent as ONE Word or PDF file. The document should have sections for nominee information, citation, rationale, curriculum vitae, additional information as required for that award, and letters of support. It is the nominator’s responsibility to assemble all of the pertinent information into ONE electronic document that committee members can easily read.

Any nominee for an award may be re-nominated using the original nomination package for one additional year only by sending an email to the Awards Chair along with the electronic award nomination. However, reference letters should be updated for the year of the renewed application. After the re-nomination a complete new nomination is required.
