Hitchcock Award
The Leon W. Hitchcock Award is presented to an outstanding junior in the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering as selected by the faculty of
that Department. This year Mark J. Sinclair from Manchester, New Hampshire
received the award. Mark currently has one of the top GPAs in the class of 2000.
Mark is currently the president of the UNH student chapter of the IEEE. During
the past year he has been a participant in the ECE Department's Robotics
Laboratory. His research, under the direction of Professor Kraft, has focused on
vibration control.
The funds for the award have been provided by alumni, faculty and friends of
the Department in memory of Leon W. Hitchcock, a longtime Professor and Chairman
of the Department. The amount of the award is determined by the interest
generated by the fund over the past year. If you would like to contribute so
that the award will continue to grow, please send your check to:
