FRONTIERS
OF POWER/BILL HUGHES SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS
One of the outcomes of
the long-standing (over 40 years) energy research program in the School of
Electrical and Computer Engineering is the establishment of scholarships
to encourage both undergraduate and graduate students to pursue their
studies in the energy/power area. These
scholarships are named in honor of Dr. William L. Hughes, head of the
school (1960-1976) who initiated the organized energy research program in
the school with sponsorship from local and regional electric utilities,
which continues to this date. He also started an annual conference named Frontiers of Power
Conference in 1968, which recently concluded its 36th edition.
During the 36th
Annual Conference conducted in Stillwater on October 27-28, 2003, two
undergraduate scholarships and one graduate scholarship were awarded.
Dr. Hughes personally presented appropriate certificates to the
following students:
