TCSE Distinguished Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Leadership Award
The TCSE Distinguished WISE Leadership Award is presented annually to an individual for outstanding and/or sustained leadership in the software engineering community to encourage women to explore science and engineering career paths.
New TCSE Rising Star Award
The TCSE Rising Star Award is presented annually to a person who is either: a) under the age of 35 at the time of nomination, or b) has completed their PhD no more than 10 years ago at the time of nomination, and who has exceeded expectations for a person of their experience in at least two of: teaching, leadership in the Software Engineering community, research, and disseminating software engineering concepts and practices.
New TCSE Lifetime Achievement Award
The TCSE Lifetime Achievement Award is presented annually to an individual who has contributed a lifetime of outstanding and sustained contributions to the software engineering community.
New TCSE New Directions Award
The TCSE New Directions Award is presented annually to an individual or team who have made substantial contributions to software engineering research or practice where these contributions moved the field in a new direction. The contribution is adopted by many other researchers and other organizations and results in advancement in the state of the art and practice. The result of the contribution is measurably superior to, and is positively influencing, existing practice.
