MBE Alumni

Our alumni change the world

Boise State mechanical engineering graduates can be found around the world in industry, research, and academia. Whether they teach in universities, head national research labs, or fly jets for NASA, our alumni have an impact on the world around them.

One of the best things about seeing our graduates move out into the world is seeing how their careers progress and evolve over time. That’s why we love maintaining contact with our alumni and hearing about their experiences.

Outstanding Alumnus Program

We love to recognize our alumni, but aren’t always aware of what you’re doing! Here’s a chance for you to tell us about your achievements and share recognition with your peers!

The Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering department at Boise State University has established an MBE Outstanding Alumni Award to honor and celebrate the outstanding achievements of our graduates within their profession and the community at large.

Notice

No Outstanding Alumnus Award will be presented for 2021 due to complications from the COVID health crisis. New nominations will be solicited in 2022.
