What do smartphone accessories, distance-swimming world records, and one of the tallest buildings in the world all have in common? Illinois Tech Alumni Award recipients helped make them happen.

We need your help in identifying nominees for the 2017 Alumni Awards. The opportunity to honor alumni from around the world would not be possible without the efforts of our campus partners like you.

Visit the Office of Alumni Relations to learn more and to submit nominations. The submission deadline is Monday, October 31, 2016.

If you plan to make a nomination, notify Kellie Fields, director of alumni programs, of your intentions as soon as possible so that she can help guide you through the nomination process. Any questions also may be directed to her at 312.567.3049 or kfields5@iit.edu.

The 2017 Alumni Awards ceremony will take place on Mies Campus on Friday, April 21, 2017. We hope you will consider joining us that day to honor the award recipients.
