Three Berkeley Engineering professors have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering (NAE): Arpad Horvath, professor of civil and environmental engineering, for research on the environmental life cycle assessment of infrastructure systems; Ravi Prasher, adjunct professor of mechanical engineering, for development of thermal management technologies for microelectronics; and Ion Stoica, professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences, for developing networked systems for large-scale data processing, analytics and machine learning.

This year’s roster of new NAE members also includes Glenn Bell (M.S.’75 CE), Wonyong “Andy” Choi (B.S.’97 ME), Juan Carlos De La Llera (M.S.’90, Ph.D.’94 CE), Tejal Desai (Ph.D.’98 BioE), James Gebhardt (M.S.’79, Ph.D.’83 MSE), Ashraf Habibullah (M.S.’70 CE), George Pappas (Ph.D.’98 EECS), Jonathan Paul Stewart (B.S.’90, M.S.’92, Ph.D.’96 CE) and Dawn Tilbury (M.S.’92, Ph.D.’94 EECS).
