The Gerald Frewer Memorial Trophy

The Gerald Frewer Memorial Trophy is presented annually for outstanding contributions in the field of engineering design, design management, education and training or design philosophy. Gerald C. Frewer died prematurely in April 1978 at the age of 56. He was a practising designer at the Kennedy Space Centre, and was known to most IED members through his lectures and articles on the American Space Programme, to which he contributed from the early days of Project Apollo through to the Space Lab and the early years of the Shuttle Project. He wrote and spoke articulately and with much enthusiasm about the work that he loved. He left a gift to the Institution to finance the award.
