This award is given annually to a graduating Mechanical Engineering student who has done inspirational, creative work in the Stanford Product Realization Laboratory. Nominations and selection are made by the community of current PRL CAs.
Jim was a prolific thinker and writer, whose teaching combined scholarship in creativity, engineering prowess, and aesthetic sensitivity; enlightening thousands of students to both technical and human issues in engineering design. His leadership transformed our student shops into today’s world-class PRL. In fact, without Jim Adams there would be no PRL.
