Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Memorial Lecture Award
ICAS has established the Memorial Lecture as its Distinguished Lectureship Award in recognition of the initiative and the great support received from the "Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Memorial Fund for the Promotion of International Co-operation in the Aeronautical Sciences" when ICAS was founded in 1957. The Lecture is delivered at each ICAS Congress, usually as the central part of the opening ceremony of the Congress. The Distinguished Lectureship Award is intended primarily to recognise and honour a scientist or engineer of eminence who in a long and productive career has made a significant contribution to progress in aeronautics.

ICAS - von Karman Award for International Co-operation in Aeronautics
ICAS founded the Award in 1980 in memory of Theodore von Karman, who was the leading figure in the foundation of ICAS and an outstanding proponent of international collaboration in the aeronautical sciences. Its purpose is to acknowledge exceptional achievement in international cooperation in the field of aeronautics, being awarded to a project or programme in which two or more countries are major participants and which is characterised by substantial technical achievement, scientific or technological advance or benefit to society. The Award is presented to a team made up of a representative of each participating country, nominated by that country as a leading contributor to its part in the project or programme.

ICAS - Award for Innovation in Aeronautics

ICAS established the Award for Innovation in Aeronautics in 2006 to recognize contributions of an individual or a team in effectively integrating a suite of advanced technologies, combined with new design and/or manufacturing processes, to create a new aeronautical system with significant worldwide impact.  This impact may have been realized at the time of the award, or it may be a future impact that can be anticipated as a result of the achievement of the recipient(s). The recipient(s) may have acted in the role of Chief Scientist, Chief Engineer, Program Manager, or in some other business or management role where the impact of their personal contribution in creating new capabilities in aeronautical systems by exploiting advanced technologies must be clear and direct.
