Kelvin Medal
The Kelvin Medal is awarded triennially by an Awards committee comprised of the Presidents of the 8 major engineering institutions. The medal, awarded for the first time in 1920, is presented as a mark of distinction in engineering work or investigation of the kind which Lord Kelvin was especially identified.
Although Lord Kelvin was pre-eminently a pioneer in the study of Pure Physics, he also achieved a great deal in the application of Pure Science to the solution of engineering problems. Therefore, the Kelvin Medal is 'awarded to men of distinguished service in the application of Science to Engineering rather than in the development of Physical Science itself.'
