One of the most distinguished professional achievements, the grade of IEEE Fellow, recognizes exceptional distinction
in the profession. It is conferred by the IEEE Board of Directors upon a person with an extraordinary record of
accomplishments in any of the IEEE fields of interest. The total number of IEEE Fellows elevated in any one year must
not exceed one-tenth of one percent of the total voting membership of the IEEE on record as of 31 December of the
preceding year. In 2012, 329 IEEE Fellows were elevated. If you would like to learn more about the IEEE Fellow
Program or would like to nominate an individual, please visit www.ieee.org/fellows.
