Awards Overview

IEEE and MTT-S Awards serve several purposes:

  1. They are an expression of recognition for outstanding contributions to the art and science of electrical and electronics engineering, – for the benefit of humanity
  2. They are an incentive to youth to emulate excellence, and
  3. They are a personalized recognition of the achievements of the profession and its members to the public.
  4. They recognize special instances, or continuing evidence of noteworthy service to IEEE or any of its organizational units.

The MTT Society supports these purposes both at the Institute and Society level. We encourage you to explore the details of IEEE and MTT-S Awards, including award description, eligibility, and nomination procedures, and to become part of the awards and recognition process.
