IEEE membership plays a vital role in advancing technology for the benefit of humanity. As a member, you know the value IEEE membership has had in your professional career as well.
The IEEE MGM program is your opportunity to share the value of IEEE membership with your friends and colleagues. Not only can you take pride in supporting IEEE, but you can also earn awards for you and your local IEEE organizational unit (Section, student branch, etc.) on qualifying referrals who join.
Information regarding MGM awards for the 2022 membership year (recruiting activity from 16 August 2021 to 15 August 2022) will be sent by 1 October 2022 to the email address on your member record. Please ensure your email address is up to date in your profile to ensure you receive this and other important membership updates. Your MGM award may only be used by you and cannot be transferred.
