The Newman Memorial Prize was an annual award of "books, scientific instruments, etc.", which was conferred on the Officer R.N., qualifying for Engineering duty, who scored highest in the Examination in Practical Engineering held on the completion of his original course of specialising in Engineering.

The prize was endowed by the interest earned by a Fund of about 400 pounds established in memory of the late Mr. Edward Newman, R.N., who died whilst serving as Chief Engineer of Portsmouth Royal Dockyard.[1]
