Microwave Pioneer Award

Microwave Prize

The Microwave Prize is the oldest award granted by the Microwave Theory and Technology Society, dating back to 1955. The Microwave Prize recognizes the author(s) of a paper published in any official IEEE publication during the calendar year (but historically selected from the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques) that is judged the most significant in the field of interest of the MTT Society. Publications which are the basis for awards are available via Xplore.

Outstanding Young Engineer Award

The Outstanding Young Engineer Award recognizes a young MTT-S member who has distinguished him/herself through achievements. These may be technical (within the MTT-S Field of Interest) or involve exemplary service to the MTT-S, or a combination of both. The nominee must be no more than 38 years of age and an MTT member at time of the nomination.

THz Science and Technology Best Paper Award

The THz Science and Tech. Best Paper Award is given annually to the best paper published in the IEEE Transactions on Terahertz Science and Technology in the previous calendar year. Publications that are the basis for awards are available via Xplore.
