The Yennie Prize

Professor Yennie was a long-time member of the Cornell Physics faculty, internationally known for his work in theoretical physics, especially in quantum electrodynamics.  He was also known to his students and colleagues as a wise and dedicated teacher.  This prize is endowed in Professor Yennie’s memory by his family and colleagues.

The Hartman Prize

This prize honors Paul Hartman, who was a long-time professor in both departments and who played a crucial role in teaching experimental physics to students in both programs.  The prize is awarded to recognize outstanding work in experimental physics by an undergraduate in either program.

The Kievel Prize

The funds for this award were given by the late Harry S. Kieval, Cornell ‘36, a long-time professor of mathematics at Humboldt State University in Arcata, California.
