TURNER PRIZE FOR INNOVATION IN CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY AWARD The National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. hosted award ceremony on February 5, 2013 “The future of the construction industry depends on attracting a more diverse workforce,” said Janice L. Tuchman, editor-in-chief of Engineering News-Record and Turner Prize juror. “The Society of Women Engineers is a driving force in bringing women into engineering careers through training, networking, scholarships, and outreach.” Fellow juror and past president of Turner Construction Company Hal Parmelee added, “the selection and recognition of Society of Women Engineers is long overdue. Women have been a welcome force to the team of people who are in construction. Their professional leadership contributions have not only enhanced the process of Construction but the quality of facilities for the end user, the public at large.”
