Call For IEEE Fellows Nomination
Posted on September 13, 2006
CALL FOR FELLOW NOMINATIONS: Forms and instructions for preparing nominations for IEEE Fellow grade membership are now available on the IEEE web site at http://www.ieee.org/fellows.
Nominations may be prepared electronically or in hard copy form and must be submitted by March 1, 2007.
The grade of Fellow recognizes unusual distinction in the profession and is conferred upon a person with an extraordinary record of accomplishments in any of the IEEE fields of interest. These accomplishments shall have contributed importantly to the advancement or application of engineering, science and technology, bringing the realization of significant value to society.
To recognize the entire spectrum of engineering activity, candidates are classified as Application Engineer/Practitioner, Research Engineer/Scientist, Technical Leader, or Educator, and judged accordingly. At the time the nomination is submitted, the candidate must be a senior member who has completed five years of service in any grade of IEEE membership excluding affiliate membership. The nominee's dues must be current.
Anyone may submit a nomination. However, all nominations must be supported by at least five, but no more than eight, references from active IEEE Fellow grade members familiar with the candidate's work. If the candidate is from Region 9, the IEEE Fellow Committee will accept references from senior members.
