IEEE - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Membership

Most IEEE members are electrical and electronics engineers, but the organization's wide scope of interests has attracted people in other disciplines are:

Other Disciplines

  • Computer Science
  • Software Engineering
  • Mechanical Engineering
  • Civil Engineering
  • Biology
  • Physics and
  • Mathematics

 

IEEE Membership

  • Student Members
  • Graduate Student Members
  • Members
  • Society Affiliates
  • Senior Members
  • Fellow Members
  • Honorary Members
  • Life Members, Life Senior Members

Any one can join the IEEE as a student member, professional member, or associate member. But hey have to qualify the membership criteria, In order to qualify for membership, the individual must fulfill certain academic or professional criteria and abide to the code of ethics and bylaws of the organization.

There are several categories and levels of IEEE membership and affiliation:

IEEE Student Members:

IEEE Student membership is available for a reduced fee to those who are enrolled in an accredited institution of higher education as undergraduate or graduate students in technology or engineering.

IEEE Graduate Student Members

Graduate Student Membership is discounted but members at this level have greater privileges than do Student Members.

IEEE Members

Ordinary or professional Membership requires that the individual have graduated from a technology or engineering program of an appropriately accredited institution of higher education or have demonstrated professional competence in technology or engineering through at least six years of professional work experience. An associate membership is available to an individual whose area of expertise falls outside the scope of the IEEE or who does not, at the time of enrollment, meet all the requirements for full membership. Students and Associates have all the privileges of members, except the right to vote and hold certain offices.

IEEE Society Affiliates

Some IEEE Societies also allow a person who is not an IEEE member to become a Society Affiliate of a particular Society within the IEEE, which allows a limited form of participation in the work of a particular IEEE Society.

IEEE Senior Members

Upon meeting certain requirements, a professional member can apply for Senior Membership, which is the highest level of recognition that a professional member can directly apply for. Applicants for Senior Member must have at least three letters of recommendation from Senior, Fellow, or Honorary members and fulfill other rigorous requirements of education, achievement, remarkable contribution, and experience in the field. The Senior Members are a selected group, and certain IEEE officer positions are available only to Senior (and Fellow) Members. Senior Membership is also one of the requirements for those who are nominated and elevated to the grade IEEE Fellow, a distinctive honor.

IEEE Fellow Members

The Fellow grade is the highest level of membership, conferred by the IEEE Board of Directors upon persons "with [extraordinary records] of accomplishments in any of the IEEE fields of interest". It cannot be applied for directly by the member; the candidate must be nominated by others, and of the Institute's voting membership no more than one in one thousand can be selected as Fellows in any given year.

IEEE Honorary Members

Individuals who are not IEEE members but have demonstrated exceptional contributions, such as being a recipient of an IEEE Medal of Honor, may receive Honorary Membership from the IEEE Board of Directors
Life Members, Life Senior Members and Life Fellows: Members who have reached the age of 65 and whose number of years of membership plus their age in years adds up to at least 100 are recognized as Life Members, Life Senior Members or Life Fellows, as appropriate.
