2018 Alumni Achievement (Merit) Award
Mark Gelfand (MCS 1973) earned his bachelor’s degree in physics from the Mellon College of Science, a field he felt could give him the broadest view of science and engineering. In 1985, he founded Boston-based company Intex Solutions, Inc., which developed the standard calculator for the international structured finance markets.
Gelfand and his wife have three sons, who all became engineers.
