Abstract :
As a member of IEEE you have the right, indeed the obligation, to make recommendations leading to the recognition of outstanding achievements in our profession. You can nominate any other individual for an IEEE award, provided the nominee meets the prerequisites for the award. Some awards are general ones offered by the IEEE, and some are unique to the Communications Society. The IEEE awards, with their respective deadlines for submission of nominations, are noted herein. For more information on IEEE awards, see Spectrum, pp. 22-23, Nov. 1976. If you would like help in making nominations or, want to suggest likely candidates for the Field Awards, contact the Editor of this Magazine, who will pass on your questions to the new Chairman of the ComSoc Awards Board. Your suggestions for IEEE Prize Paper Awards would also be welcome.
