Bill J. Emrich Jr. (GA A ’73), has been named 2015 Engineer of the Year by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). He was honored for his work in a nuclear rocket engine simulator. “The Engineer of the Year award goes to an individual whose personal contribution leads to ‘a significant accomplishment or event.’ Emrich conceived, designed and now operates the Nuclear Thermal Rocket Element Environment Simulator (NTREES). The simulator lets researchers test characteristics of nuclear rocket fuel prototypes in a non-nuclear environment.”
