The Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME), the world’s premier source for manufacturing knowledge, education and networking, has elected 10 outstanding members  to the Society’s prestigious College of Fellows. The 2011 class joins 268 other SME members who have been elected as Fellows since the program’s inception in 1986, and represents various segments of the manufacturing community.

“The Class of 2011 SME Fellows represents a diverse group of nationally and internationally recognized individuals who have contributed much to the field of manufacturing,” said Marvin DeVries, Ph.D., FSME, CMfgE, PE, chair of the SME International Awards & Recognition Committee. “Their accomplishments, covering a wide range of technologies, have had a measurable and significant impact on their communities. SME is honored by their addition to our existing group of Fellows.”

“We commend each and every one of this year’s class of Fellows,” said Paul D. Bradley, PE, 2011 SME president. “The selection process is quite thorough with a meticulous review of all their accomplishments. I am pleased to see them recognized for their ongoing dedication to manufacturing and to the Society.”

The SME College of Fellows was created to honor those members who have made outstanding contributions to the social, technological and educational aspects of the manufacturing profession. This honor can only be earned through 20 or more years of dedication and service to manufacturing engineering.
