It’s Time to Nominate a Coworker for an IEEE Top-Level Award

Each year, IEEE pays tribute to technical professionals whose outstanding contributions have made a lasting impact on technology and the engineering profession for humanity. The IEEE Awards program seeks nominations annually for IEEE’s top awards—Medals and Recognitions—that are given on behalf of the IEEE Board of Directors.

You don’t have to be an IEEE member to receive, nominate, or endorse someone for an award.

Nominations for 2025 Medals and Recognitions will be open from 1 December to 15 June 2024. All nominations must be submitted through the IEEE Awards online portal set up for Medals and Recognitions.

These awards are presented at the annual IEEE Honors Ceremony. The 2024 IEEE Vision, Innovation, and Challenges Summit and Honors Ceremony will be held on 3 May at the Encore Boston Harbor. Planning for the upcoming event is currently underway, and more information will be announced in the coming months.

The IEEE Awards Board has an ongoing initiative to increase diversity among the selection committees and candidates, including their technical discipline, geography, and gender. You can help by nominating a colleague for one of the following awards.
