Senior member is the highest grade for which IEEE members can apply. IEEE members can self-nominate, or be nominated, for Senior Member grade. To be eligible for application or nomination, candidates must:
- Be engineers, scientists, educators, technical executives, or originators in IEEE-designated fields
- Have experience reflecting professional maturity
- Have been in professional practice for at least 10 years (with some credit for certain degrees)
- Show significant performance over a period of at least 5 of their years in professional practice
IEEE Region 8 is highly encouraging applications already from our Young Professional members who fulfill the above criteria and inviting everyone to learn more about the process at IEEE Senior Member Website. To facilitate the number of applications, IEEE Region 8 has formed a dedicated Ad-hoc committee Senior Members Search, currently chaired by Dusanka Boskovic (contact).
