The State University of New York awarded an honorary doctor of science degree to SUNY Potsdam alumnus Haden A. Land in a recent special ceremony held in the Hall of the States in Washington, D.C.

SUNY Potsdam president Kristin G. Esterberg gave the degree, alongside provost Margaret L. Madden. Several Congress members and staffers also took part in the ceremony.

As the vice president for research and technology for Lockheed Martin's information systems and global solutions business, Land serves numerous U.S. government agencies, allied nations and regulated commercial industries.

He is also a prominent and passionate advocate for STEAM, which incorporates the arts into science, technology, engineering and mathematics education. Last year, Land was one of three industry panelists invited to speak at a briefing for Congressional STEAM Caucus members and staff in the nation's capitol.
