The award shall consist of an engraved plaque, a check for $1,000, and a complimentary Annual International Meeting registration.

Award Background: Pharos is an island in the bay of Alexandria, Egypt. It is famous for its lighthouse, designed in the 3rd century BC and considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Two earthquakes in the 14th century destroyed the lighthouse and the remains were used to build Fort Qaitbay. Pharos is synonymously defined as a lighthouse to guide seamen.  The Pharos of Alexandria Global Learning Award motto is, “Let there be light for life”.  

Dr. Awatif El-Domiaty Hassan, ASABE Fellow, established The Pharos of Alexandria Global Learning Award in 2011 to enhance global learning in honor of her beloved place of birth and upbringing, the city of Alexandria, pearl of the Mediterranean. Dr. Hassan received her BS in Agricultural Engineering from the University of Alexandria in 1959. She received her MS and PhD from the University of California Davis in 1964 and 1968 respectively. She has taught at the university level for more than 45 years and has a strong bond and love for all students, which is expressed in this award.
