Charles Stark Draper Prize

The U.S. National Academy of Engineering annually awards the Draper Prize,[1] which is given for the advancement of engineering and the education of the public about engineering.

[2] The Draper prize is named for Charles Stark Draper, the "father of inertial navigation", an MIT professor and founder of Draper Laboratory.

The NAE website shows that no Draper Prize was awarded in 2010, 2017, 2019 or 2021.

[16] Since the award is a biennial one, it was probably only given in even years beginning in 2016.

The Russ Prize, also from the NAE, is awarded in odd years.
