The 2021 IEEE Annual Election has now begun. Submit your vote before 12:00 p.m. ET (1600 UTC-04) on 1 October to help determine the future volunteer leadership of IEEE.
The voting membership of IEEE annually elects officers that serve on the top-tier IEEE governing bodies. The candidates comprise of members who have been nominated either by the nominating committee for that position or by petition.
