Alfred Noble Prize

Alfred Noble Prize

The Alfred Noble Prize is an award presented by the combined engineering societies of the United States, given each year to a person not over thirty-five for a paper published in one of the journals of the participating societies.

The prize was established in 1929 in honor of Alfred Noble, past President of the American Society of Civil Engineers.

It has no connection to the Nobel Prize established by Alfred Nobel, with which this award is often confused due to the similarity of the names.
