Eighty-two of the nation's brightest young engineers have been selected to take part in this symposium. The 2½-day event brings together engineers ages 30 to 45 who are performing exceptional engineering research and technical work in a variety of disciplines. The participants -- from industry, academia, and government -- were nominated by fellow engineers or organizations and chosen from more than 230 applicants.
