Chowdhury's breadth of work and impact on the education of today's youth makes him the ideal recipient of the SAE Arnold W. Siegel Humanitarian Award. SAE International's A World In Motion® (AWIM®) introduced the 2022 Chowdhury STEM Innovation Contest nationally for elementary and middle school students that are asked to choose a real-world issue to research, imagine and design their own STEM solution, then create a digital presentation to share their ideas in a fun, engaging way. This contest was possible by a generous grant from the Subir and Malini Chowdhury Foundation with partnership with the SAE Foundation.
Lori Gatmaitan, Executive Director, SAE Foundation stated, "Chowdhury's accomplishments are inspiring. Chowdhury's work to benefit humanity is at the heart of our organization's mission and we are proud to recognize him for his hard work and dedication."
Chowdhury said, "The SAE Arnold W. Siegel Humanitarian Award has been a major highlight of my career. It has brought me a great deal of personal satisfaction knowing that my work on quality and innovation has a human dimension to it, which has impacted the life of young children to high school and college students to professionals. Motivating next generation to STEM disciplines to address the problems of current affairs give me enormous joy. I am deeply honored to receive this recognition from SAE."
