Mechanics Hall Leaders Honor WPI
Worcester Polytechnic Institute was awarded the 2011 Master Mechanic Award this week by Mechanics Hall at the 168th annual meeting of the Worcester County Mechanics Association, which operates the hall.
The group honored WPI for fostering excellence, notably in engineering education and research and for its on-campus and Gateway Park life sciences development. The school's president and CEO, Dennis Berkey, accepted the award and addressed the meeting.
"I am exceedingly proud to be able to represent a financially strong, highly innovative and entrepreneurial institution which stands as an exemplar of what is best about higher education today and, like the Mechanics Association, is devoted to achieving the most prosperous and just future for our city and for the nation," Berkey said.
