Nominations are being accepted for the 2008 class of IEEE Fellows. For the third year, nominations, references and endorsements may be submitted electronically. The deadline is 1 March 2007 (2007-03-01).
At its June 2003 meeting, the IEEE Board of Directors approved changes to the process for nominating and electing IEEE members to Fellow grade. The change established a new nomination category for individual contributions, with the goal of increasing nominations for members in industry and encouraging nominations of application engineers or engineering practitioners who have made contributions of unusual distinction to the profession.
The board also established a Fellow Nomination Resource Center to help nominators locate the required number of references to support a nomination.
