Each year Engineers Australia presents a number of awards for students who have achieved top marks in their engineering studies. In Western Australia six division medals are awarded. The winners for 2006 include two Tesla Medallists:

• The Russell Dumas Medal for 2006, for best academic performance in the final year at UWA, was awarded to Christopher Chung, last year’s Tesla Medal winner.

• The IEAust/Murdoch Medal for 2006, for best academic achievement, qualities of leadership and interest in Engineers Australia, was awarded to Karne de Boer, this year’s Tesla Medal winner from Murdoch University.
