6 prizes awarded during the ISAE-SUPAERO Awards evening

Jean Pierson Award

The Jean Pierson Prize, an exceptional prize in honor of Jean Pierson (1940-2021), who graduated from ISAE-SUPAERO in 1963, was created within ISAE-SUPAERO in order to reward each year a student of ISAE-SUPAERO.

This brand new prize, implemented in 2022 by the ISAE-SUPAERO Foundation, pays tribute to Jean Pierson, a man with a particularly inspiring personality. It is thanks to the initiative and the donations of friends, former collaborators and family members of Jean Pierson as well as the support of companies in which he worked with ardor and panache, that this prize was created.

Following the nomination of 17 candidates by teachers, other students or teachers of internships, they were able to submit their applications which were examined by the jury. After pre-selection of four candidates and videoconference discussions with each of them, the jury deliberated to select only one.

Anne-Alice Faure, a 2022 graduate of the MGPIE Specialized Master’s program, has been chosen to receive the Jean Pierson Prize of 20,000 euros.

Congratulations to the first winner of this award!

Paul alain lamy award

Amandine CORTIER, a third-year engineering student graduating in 2022, receives the Paul Alain Lamy award for her commitment throughout her studies. With energy and conviction, Amandine has promoted student community life by being the General Secretary of the Students’ Office and also by getting involved in various clubs such as the Sailing, Gliding and Rugby Clubs. Convinced that climate issues must be tackled at all levels, she has also been involved in Supaero 4 Earth for two years. It was on this occasion that she organized a forum on transition jobs on campus and thus collected the testimony of more than 15 Alumni, creating links with the ISAE-SUPAERO community. Throughout her schooling, Amandine has also been involved in the ISAE-SUPAERO OSE Program, using her time to raise awareness of climate change and the Climate Fresco among middle and high school students. Now an alumni, Amandine decided to continue the adventure with OSEingé by giving her time to promote girls in engineering schools.

Congratulations to Amandine Cortier for this award.

Created in memory of Paul Alain Lamy (S 1995), who died prematurely in 2002, this prize is financed by his partner and friend, Florent Moïse and his wife Andréa.
