The IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) each year carefully selects a group of Distinguished Microwave Lecturers (DMLs) who are internationally recognized experts and technical leaders in their fields within the Society. The DMLs are available to present talks to local chapters world-wide and serve as ambassadors for the Society. They will travel to MTT-S Chapters or Joint Chapters with other IEEE Societies, Student Chapters, and IEEE Sections to present a nominally 1-hour Technical Lecture on the DML’s Technical Topic and also present material that promotes the MTT-S at each talk.
- DML Talk Request and Assignment:
a)Each Chapter will be asked to submit their annual DML invitation plan to DML Coordinator. If a Chapter will be locally sponsoring a conference, a requested talk can be given at that conference.
b)DML Coordinator pre-selects relevant DML talks and shares the plan with each DML for their availability within each quarter year period.
c)DML Coordinator shares the availability with all the Chapters who may benefit from a DML trip.
d)Discussions among the DML and the relevant Chapters will continue until the trip is finalized. - Responsibilities of Inviting Chapter:
The inviting Chapter is requested to provide local transportation, lodging, and meal for the DML. The Chapter should broadly advertise the DML talk to the local technical community to maximize attendance. The Chapter should inform an approximate number of the attendees before the DML prepares for the trip.
Please contact the DML Coordinator Dr. Mohammad Madihian (madihian@ieee.org) if you have any further questions.
