Nominations for Outstanding Section Awards – Deadline 15 May 2022
Each year, the MGA Outstanding Section Awards are presented to one large, one medium, and one small Section (across all Regions), to recognize their excellent work and successful efforts in fulfilling the educational and scientific goals of IEEE for the benefit of the public. The recipient Sections are acknowledged for maintaining, enhancing, and supporting the Student Branches, Technical Chapters, and Affinity Groups within their geographic boundaries.
Three awards are presented, as follows:
Large Section = 1,501 or more members (including Students) as of 31 December of the prior year;
Medium Section = 501-1,500 members (including Students) as of 31 December of the prior year;
Small Section = 500 or fewer members (including Students) as of 31 December of the prior year
To nominate your Section for the MGA Outstanding Large, Medium, or Small Section Award, please

According to Sheryl Sandberg, “In the future there will be no female leaders. There will just be leaders.” IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) UK & Ireland ambassadors’ scheme is continuously striving to bring this future sooner. On this International Women’s Day, we are proud to celebrate our first anniversary. Indeed, it was a year full of events, activities and struggles to not only promote women in engineering and technology but also to create a culture of diversity & inclusion and accepting it as a norm rather than an exception. We envision a vibrant community of IEEE women and men collectively using their diverse talents to innovate for the benefit of humanity.
This video sums up our past year’s events and reflects on how we are progressing to reach our goal. Apart from our main goal of global diversity in science, technology, mathematics, computing and engineering, our events also aim to expose the audience to novel areas and aspects of engineering and computing which solves real world problems, establish a link for industrial collaborations, networking and mentorship and create connections for future research opportunities. Last year, we organised four ‘Early Career Talks’ to provide recent PhD graduates and postdoctoral researchers a platform to share their work. This on-going program is now planning to bring together the fifth episode of the series. There were also two main events for promoting a diverse industry-academia collaboration, titled ‘Challenges and Opportunities: Towards Better WIE Future’ and ‘Empowering Women in the Triple Helix Model’. All our events included variety of topics and speakers representing men and women from both academia and industry. We are grateful to the sponsors, speakers and attendees of events for making them a success!
We are keen to continue working towards a better future for humanity both in terms of technology and diversity and look forward to your participation and encouragement. We wish a happy International Women’s Day to all women and men supporting equality!
The year 2022 will mark the 25th anniversary of IEEE Women in Engineering and we are planning a full year of celebrations and key moments to reflect on the great progress and achievements made by great women in STEM within the IEEE. We also plan to celebrate the great men who consistently support women along the way. The WIE 25th anniversary Sub-committee is ready to announce the portfolio of activities which will start with concerted reflections by the past and current WIE chairs, who have led the Committee since its formation in 1997, with a special interview session this year.
This International Women’s Day 08 March, IEEE WIE 25th Anniversary subcommittee presents “A Global Marathon: Spanning the Globe with 25 Years of WIE” We dedicate this event to mothers, sisters, wives, daughters, and all women in the world who are faced with discrimination, injustice, and other socioeconomic issues.
Join Maria Alexandra Paun, Chair of IEEE Region 8 Women in Engineering.
