THE ASME FOUNDATION 2001-2002

The ASME Foundation received generous support from individuals, corporations, and foundations. These contributions resulted in the enhancement of grants, scholarships and loans, honors and awards, and educational programs that are helping shape the future

of the profession. Many dedicated individuals gave generously of their time as well, contributing immeasurably to the success of the programs. The Foundation is indebted to each of them.

We are pleased to welcome to the Foundation as a trustee George Paczkowski, president, RMST Technology, Conoco, which was a major contributor to the capital campaign. James Wood, president and CEO of Babcock Borsig Capital Corporation and currently a Foundation trustee, will also serve as a director. David Belden, who retired as ASME executive director, will continue on the Foundation boards in his new role as a volunteer.

New Grants

The Foundation sought proposals in three areas of greatest need for the profession. The focus was on scientific, mathematical and technical literacy beginning in grades K-12, career planning and skills development for engineers, and technologically sound public policy. The grant program is supported by funds from the World Class ... By Design capital campaign endowment and the Leighton and Margaret Orr Fund. Four grants totaling $200,000 were awarded in 2001:

* $30,000 for six $5,000 ASME FIRST (For the Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Scholarships for high school seniors participating in the FIRST robotics competition and entering college mechanical engineering programs in fall 2002.

* $95,000 for the first year of a 3-year project to develop a Web-based professional practice curriculum that will better prepare engineering students to assume a responsible role in the profession.

* $25,000 for a Web-based learning module on intellectual property that will foster better understanding of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets as they relate to the practice of engineering.

* $50,000 to place an engineering fellow, who will provide valuable public service to the United States by making available much needed engineering expertise, in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

Grants Update

Engineering Magic, a 2-year Web project that received a 1999 grant, has been completed with six modules consisting of videos, instructions, lesson plans and student guides demonstrating a variety of science concepts.

Of the six proposals receiving funding in 2000, five are ongoing and one was completed:

* Before being launched, the public policy Web-based learning module on the New Mexico pipeline explosion and diesel engine technology will be beta tested at five universities.

* ASME guidance booklets will be distributed free of charge to a network of department heads, high school teachers and guidance counselors, while complementary versions will be created for the ASME Career Guidance Website.

* The initial phase of a program to determine and disseminate best practices in high school-level engineering curricula is building a network of innovative educators.

* Two teachers received ASME Middle School Engineering Fellowships for providing strategic guidance and making significant contributions at the 2001 Summer Annual Meeting and the Congress.

* The Great Achievements video was produced and distributed to 2,000 middle schools. Its online component provides comprehensive lesson plans and activities for the classroom.

* ASME introduced the newly revised Engineering Merit Badge at the 2001 National Boy Scouts Jamboree. ASME volunteers served as merit badge counselors and nearly 400 badges were awarded.

Scholarships and Loans

The Board on Engineering Education's Scholarship Selection Committee was responsible for selecting 52 of the recipients of ASME Foundation--sponsored scholarships, which totaled $96,000.

The Bruce J. Heim Foundation chose the ASME Foundation as its partner to advance the exploration of space by providing tuition assistance for a graduate engineering student who has career aspirations in the field.

The Kenneth Andrew Roe Scholarship is now $10,000.

Each time an ASME member recruited a new member, 50 percent of that first-year dues was used to fund scholarships. The campaign, initiated by the Council on Member Affairs, resulted in ten $1,500 Member-Get-A-Member Scholarships.

The Foundation funded other scholarships as well. Seven $5,000 ASME FIRST Scholarships were awarded--one supported by the Gracik Fund and the others by a 2001 ASME Foundation grant. Six institutions of higher learning each received a $6,000 Clarke Scholarship for incoming freshmen. The Clarke Scholarship is offered jointly by the Foundation and the ASME Auxiliary and is administered with the Board on Pre-college Education. Four fellows received graduate teaching fellowships of $5,000. In all, the Foundation awarded 69 scholarships and fellowships in the amount of $182,500. The ASME Student Loan Fund provided 169 loans totaling $325,000.

THE ASME FOUNDATION 2001-2002

Honors and Awards

The Foundation provided funding for the Society's Honors and Awards Program, celebrating the achievements of outstanding engineers. Among the distinguished award winners were Dean Kamen, who received the Ralph Coats Roe Medal, and L "Skip' Fletcher, recipient of the ASME Medal. Patrick Flynn gave the Honda Lecture on chemistry and engine design.

Nick Friesen and Allan Kraus led a successful campaign to establish the Frank Von Flue Lifelong Learning Award. Larry Witte spearheaded a drive to enhance the Heat Transfer Memorial Award. Mulchand Rathod is leading the campaign to fund the BMW (Board on Minorities and Women) Award at the Society level.

Additional Support

The annual appeal raised $21,516 from 218 donors. Paul Soros and individual members of the ASME Metropolitan Section helped to support the New York City Science, Math and Engineering Enrichment Program held in conjunction with the 2001 Congress.

Contributions were made in memory of long-time ASME member Tsung-Chi Tsu, for whom a special scholarship is being planned, and for the father of ASME staff member Warren Leonard.

A debt of gratitude is due the members and friends of ASME who have made the Foundation the recipient of significant gifts through trusts and wills. These are destined to have a lasting influence on the profession and, by extension, on society.

Looking Ahead

For any person or organization wishing to leave a legacy to mechanical engineering, the ASME Foundation will work with them and their advisors to maximize the gift and the benefits.
