Faculty IEEE Fellows

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is proud to have a number of IEEE fellows among our faculty and alumni.

The IEEE Grade of Fellow is conferred by the Board of Directors upon a person with an extraordinary record of accomplishments in any of the IEEE fields of interest. A brief citation is issued to new Fellows describing their accomplishments and the total number selected in any one year does not exceed one-tenth percent of the total voting Institute membership.
