IEEE Fellows
Fellows of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society
The grade of Fellow recognizes unusual distinction in the profession and shall be conferred only by invitation of the Board of Directors upon a person of outstanding and extraordinary qualifications and experience in IEEE designated fields (including electrical engineering, electronics, computer engineering and computer sciences, and the allied branches of engineering and related arts and sciences), who has made important individual contributions to one or more of these fields, that have been reflected in an improved quality of life for society.
The IEEE Bylaws limit the number of members who can be advanced to Fellow grade in any one year to one-tenth percent of the total Institute membership, exclusive of Students and Associates, on record as of December 31 of the year preceding.
Nominations are evaluated by the Technical Society/Council engaged in the technical field in which the candidate is active. The professional scope for Oceanic Engineering is:
All applications of electrical and electronic engineering pertaining to all bodies of water. Included are design, testing and application of water oriented systems, subsystems, and components. This shall include scientific, technical and industrial applications, or other activities that contribute to the field, or utilize the techniques or products of the field, subject to modifications directed or approved by the IEEE Technical Activities Board as the art develops.
An individual's contribution may be within any of three categories: Engineer/Scientist, Technical Leader or Educator, all of which are deserving of recognition.
Requirements:
Candidates must be an IEEE Senior Member at the time of nomination and have been an IEEE Member for at least 5 years. Any person, including those who are not members of the IEEE, may nominate a candidate. The exceptions are IEEE Officers involved in Fellow evaluations and IEEE Staff.
