Navid Azizan Receives NSF CAREER Award
Navid Azizan, the Alfred Henry (1929) and Jean Morrison Hayes Career Development Professor and Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering, has received an NSF CAREER award. His project, "Trustworthy Learning-Enabled Autonomy: Safe, Robust, and Scalable Data-Driven Decision-Making,” aims to develop foundations that allow autonomous systems to learn from data while reliably respecting safety constraints.
The Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program is a Foundation-wide activity that offers the National Science Foundation's (NSF) most prestigious awards in support of early-career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization.
Azizan also recently received the “Joseph A. Martore (1975) Excellence in Teaching Award” from the MIT Institute for Data, Systems and Society.
