The IEEE will award Millenium Medals to individuals to be recognized for their contributions to any of the IEEE entities, e.g., a Technical Society, a Region/Section, etc. These individuals are to be nominated by that entity.
Via this short message, I would like to invite your nominations for the IEEE Millenium Medals to be awarded by the Oceanic Engineering Society, in recognition of that individuals service to the OES. (Service is defined here as any mode of contribution to the Society, either technical, administrative or other.) Just send me an email (g.williams@ieee.org) by August 31, 1999, with the nominees name, contact information and a 25 word (max) description of the individuals contribution to the OES. Multiple nominees may be submitted. The OES Millenium Medal nominees to be forwarded to the IEEE will be determined by your elected Administrative Committee, with the award recipients listed in this Newsletter after they are announced by the IEEE.
Award presentations will take place at OCEANS00 if possible, or another OES function where appropriate.
