*About the MIT ASO Science and Technology Awards:*



Every year, the Arab Students' Organization at MIT organizes the MIT ASO
Science and Technology Awards Banquet to recognize outstanding Arab and
Arab-American contributions to science and technology. The ceremony draws
over 100 members of the Arab and Arab-American communities to celebrate the
career-long accomplishments of the Lifetime Achievement Award recipient. The
following awards will also be given:

1. The Young Professional Award recognizes the early career achievements of
a young Arab or Arab-American scientist or technologist.

2. The Student Awards, given to one Undergraduate student and one Graduate
student, recognize the academic and leadership achievements of outstanding
Arab or Arab-American students in any US campus. Each of these awards comes
with a $1,000 cash scholarship.



This is a great opportunity to be recognized by the Arab and Arab-American
community not only in the Boston area, but nationwide. The success of
previous ceremonies is a testimony to how award winners and nominees attain
a great deal of recognition from the Arab and Arab-American community and
beyond.



*Please nominate professionals and students that you think have made great
contributions to the community. Remember: you can nominate yourself!*
