NAE Reelects Wulf

The National Academy of Engineering has reelected William A. Wulf to head the organization for six more years. He took over as interim president in 1997, and has since been on leave from the University of Virginia. Wulf believes that the increasing global population—most of which will end up in new giant cities—will lead to unique engineering challenges in energy, water, waste management, and transportation. “By the time I leave office, I want engineering to do a better job of supplying information on which public policy can be based,” he says.
