2023 SEAOC College of Fellows

The Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC) Board of Directors established the College of Fellows in 1994 to honor esteemed members who have provided distinguished service to the Association and made outstanding contributions in the field of structural engineering. Each SEAOC Member Organization nominates prospective Fellows based on a set of criteria that includes demonstrated skill and achievement in structural engineering, contributions to the profession through publication or presentations, service to the Member Organizations or SEAOC, and service to the public through participation on boards and bodies relevant to structural engineering. 

The highest honor that SEAOC bestows on any individual member of the association is entry into the prestigious SEAOC College of Fellows. Members are nominated annually by the Board of Directors of each of the four regional associations (SEAOSC, SEAONC, SEAOSD and SEAOCC) that together form SEAOC.  Nominated members have shown significant contributions to the structural engineering profession and growth of SEAOC over the years.

View a complete list of past recipients from each of the four regional associations at the SEAOC website.
