One of the most valuable types of recognition of the attainment of young engineers was instituted in 1929 in the Alfred Noble Prize, an award from the income of a fund contributed by engineers and others in honor of Alfred Noble, Past-President of the American Society of Civil Engineers, and of the Western Society of Engineers. Named after one of the most illustrious and best beloved members of the profession in the history of American engineering, its particular purpose is to perpetuate his name and achievements.
