Engineering excellence is measured not only by what is built, but by who is empowered along the way. This year’s Engineers Canada Award recipients demonstrate how curiosity, leadership, and generosity of spirit can transform institutions, advance knowledge, and open doors for others. From classrooms and laboratories to communities, boardrooms, and the reach of space, their work turns possibility into progress. Together, they show how engineers lead with purpose — creating lasting impact, strengthening the profession, and inspiring confidence in a more inclusive, resilient future.
Nominated by their peers and colleagues, the Engineers Canada Awards recognize the exceptional work and achievements of leaders in engineering. Our 2026 recipients have demonstrated exceptional dedication, innovation, and leadership, making significant impacts in engineering practice, education, research, and community service. Engineers Canada is honoured to recognize the contributions these individuals have made throughout their lives, and the lasting impact they will have for future generations.
Meet the 2026 Engineers Canada award recipients.
Presented annually since 1972 to recognize outstanding Canadian engineers and engineering students, the Engineers Canada Awards highlight engineering excellence, as well as the contributions of Canadian engineers to their profession, to their community, and to the safety and well-being of Canadians.
The process to review and determine the award recipients is rigorous. Engineers Canada forwards the call for award nominations to the provincial and territorial engineering associations, Canadian post-secondary institutions, and the engineering community every fall. Nominees are brought forward and careful consideration is given to leadership in the profession and the community, outstanding achievements, and to previous recognition obtained. The nominees are reviewed by the Engineers Canada Awards Committee who, in turn, determine the award recipients.
