Professor Jason T. DeJong has been selected as this year's recipient of the Shamsher Prakash Research Award.

The award is targeted for young engineers, scientists and researchers (40 years or younger). The candidates should be specialists in Geotechnical Engineering and/or Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and it is necessary that they have significant independent contributions and show promise of excellence in research. The nominations were reviewed by a Judging Committee of International Experts.

Previous recipients include the UC Davis alumna Tara Hutchinson (2009) and our very own Professor Ross W. Boulanger (2001).

For more information visit the Shamsher Prakash Foundation website.

Congratulations Professor DeJong!!
