NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- AccessEngineering, McGraw-Hill Professional's innovative reference and learning platform for engineers, was honored as the best eProduct in Physical Sciences and Mathematics at the 2012 Awards for Professional and Scholarly Excellence (the PROSE Awards), in a year of record entries to the competition. Established by the Association of American Publishers, the PROSE Awards, which are judged by peer publishers, academics and librarians, recognize the very best in professional and scholarly publishing by bringing attention to distinguished and groundbreaking books, journals, and electronic content in more than 40 categories.
