Paul F. Forman Team Engineering Excellence Award

The Paul F. Forman Team Engineering Excellence Award was first introduced as the Engineering Excellence Award by the Optical Society in 1989 and was awarded individually, or shared among individuals. In 2007 it was named in honor of Paul F. Forman.[1] This award recognizes technical achievements in optical engineering as well as contributions to society such as engineering education. It award is sponsored by Zygo Corporation, Canon Inc, Optical Solutions Group at Synopsys, Cambridge Research & Instrumentation, and several individual contributors.[2]
