The Scottish Engineering Hall of Fame honours "those engineers from, or closely associated with, Scotland who have achieved, or deserve to achieve, greatness",[1] as selected by an independent panel representing Scottish engineering institutions, academies, museums and archiving organisations.[2]
The Scottish Engineering Hall of Fame was established by the Institution of Engineers in Scotland in 2011.[3][4][5] New inductees are announced each year at the IES James Watt Dinner.[6][7][8][9][10][11][excessive citations]
