Previous Award Winners
The 2007 Honor's Day Awards
has a deadline
for Bill N. Baron nominations of March 1, 2007.
In Memory of Bill N. Baron 1943 - 1992
Bill N. Baron served the University of Delaware and the photovoltaic community from 1975 to 1992 as
a scientist, manager and deputy director at the Institute of Energy Conversion. Throughout his
professional life Bill was especially interested in students and their education. He devoted many
hours to teaching both graduates and undergraduates how to carry out creative and effective research
in photovoltaics.
Bill's family, colleagues and friends wanted to assure that students would continue to benefit from
Bill's concern about their education. To this end, the Bill N. Baron Fellowship was established.
The Bill N. Baron Fellowship is awarded to two graduate students from the
University of Delaware, with a cumulative index of 3.0 or above. The nominee(s) must
be carrying out or have recently completed an exceptional piece of supervised research in
engineering, science or energy policy in the renewable energy field with a strong preference for
research emphasizing photovoltaics.
