Each year, BSCES presents awards to deserving individuals and companies in the Section or in the community who are nominated by their peers in recognition of their service. There is a wide variety of categories from technical to community service to government service. This is your opportunity to nominate a co-worker, friend, or company that deserves special recognition.
