The INCE-USA Outstanding Educator Award for Excellence in the Teaching of Noise Control Engineering is intended to honor a person who has significantly advanced the technology and practice of noise control engineering through unique contributions to the education of future noise control engineers. The Award consists of a Certificate and a cash grant of $2000.
The Laymon N. Miller Award for Excellence in Acoustical Consulting is an annual award to be provided jointly by the National Council of Acoustical Consultants (NCAC) and the INCE-USA. This award is to be provided to an individual who has practiced acoustical consulting in an exemplary manner over a sustained period to improve acoustical environments in and around buildings, transportation systems, workplaces, recreational and other occupied spaces such that the quality of life for citizens and communities is significantly enhanced. A personalized medallion is included with this award.
The William W. Lang INCE Distinguished Noise Control Engineer Award is intended to recognize individuals who have rendered conspicuous and consistently outstanding service to the Institute and to the field of noise control engineering over a sustained period. This honor corresponds to the title "Distinguished Professor" in academia and to the Honorary Fellowship Award of professional societies such as the Acoustical Society of America. This recognition does not involve a new grade of membership. Nominations for the Award are accepted every other year, though there is no guarantee the Award will be bestowed each 2-year cycle. A personalized medallion is included with this award.
The George C. Maling Award for Excellence in Noise Control Engineering is intended to stimulate the development and/or recognition of noise control engineering technology for the ultimate benefit of society and to provide, and disseminate widely, recognition for one or more individuals or institutions who have demonstrated one or more contemporary and outstanding products or processes in the applied art of noise control engineering. The product or process should also be capable to making an effective contribution toward a quieter environment. This honorary award is similar, in concept, to the Malcolm Baldridge Award program of the US Department of Commerce, as well as similar awards from professional societies such as the American Institute of Architects (AIA) or the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). Nominations for the Award are accepted every other year, though there is no guarantee the Award will be bestowed each 2-year cycle. A personalized medallion is included with this award.
