Professor
James M. Utterback, David J. McGrath jr Professor of Management
and Innovation and Engineering Systems, received two honors
this summer.
The
Technology Management Education Association presented Utterback
with a lifetime achievement award in June, 2004. The Board
of Directors specifically cited Utterback for his “seminal
contributions to the field of Technology Management Education
through his long-time leadership efforts in fundamental
research, program development, and fostering an effective
dialogue among academic and industry technology professionals.”
Earlier
this month, Utterback was appointed a member of the University
of Chicago’s Board of Governors for Argonne National
Laboratory for a three year term through 2007. This important
laboratory has four broad missions: fundamental and applied
science, scientific research facilities, energy and environmental
science, and national security.
Utterback
is on sabbatical for the fall, 2004 term and will be spending
time at several other universities in the United States
and Sweden. He will also be on sabbatical during the fall
term of 2005, during which he will reside and be doing research
at the University of Cambridge. Utterback will teach at
MIT during the spring term of both years and will return
to MIT full time in 2006.
