What's New

Featured mentor:
Quazi Fawad

Don't miss out what SAE
Membership offers.

In this issue we feature the
mentor Quazi Fawad, who as
Product Engineering
Manager, Cummins Inc., leads
a team of product
development engineers at
Cummins working on nextgeneration DEF mixers for diesel after-treatment
systems. The team employs a combination of
analytical tools and experimental evaluation to
design, optimize, and validate new mixers for a range
of engine sizes and applications. The cadence of the
work is driven by the design reviews. All of the
development and validation work is summarized and
presented to key stakeholders for review and
approval. In addition, Quazi also manages the
budget, forecasts the needs for future programs, and
mentors new engineers. He graduated with a
bachelor of mechanical engineering degree from
N.E.D University in Karachi, Pakistan, in 1998. After
two years with Siemens Pakistan, Quazi started
working towards a master's degree in mechanical
engineering. After graduation, he worked in
manufacturing before starting at Cummins in 2008.
Many roles and business units later, he now leads an
engineering team and a multi-million-dollar annual
budget. Quazi likes to share his experiences with
young engineers and wants to help them develop
technically deep careers. This has motivated him to
become an SAE mentor.

Learn how to transfer your
member grade
When you apply for membership,
you are assigned a grade of
membership, either Student,
Associate, or Member, based on
your educational background,
experience, and level of
engineering involvement. If you
are assigned Associate grade,
this means you support the
objectives of SAE but do not have
a qualifying engineering degree
or equivalent years of technical
education and professional
technical experience to be at the
Member grade. Member grade
also has voting rights. But you
can apply for a member grade
transfer if you earn a qualifying
engineering degree. Apply here
for your member grade transfer.
Engineers Week Contest
There were four winners of the
Member Connection Engineers
Week contest in February. Each
of the winners received a $100
Amazon gift card. Chad Peterson
was a double-winner. Other
winners were Daniel Fitzgerald,
Hai Doan, and Tarun Mehra.
