The Huntsville Community, the Huntsville Association of Technical Societies congratulates the Professionals of the Year (POY).  POYs are selected by their individual technical societies and are honored at the annual awards ceremony hosted by HATS.

The Huntsville Association of Technical Societies (HATS) hosted its annual Professionals Of the Year Awards Dinner on June 28, 2005 at 7pm at the Holiday Inn Select downtown. The event was sponsored by ASD, Inc. for the second consecutive year. Each professional organization that is a member of HATS is allowed to nominate an active individual for Professional Of the Year recognition. The Professional of the Year Awards are bestowed upon individuals who most thoroughly achieve the goals of the society during the past year and are selected by the individuals’ organizations. Each of the 2005 recipients engaged in professional activities that resulted in broad social, technological, or economical consequences to benefit the science and engineering community. They have all exhibited an extraordinary amount of dedication, creativity, and leadership in their work. HATS recognized these individuals at the 2005 Professionals Of the Year Awards Dinner, where they were presented with a certificate recognizing their contributions.
