Through its awards program, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers recognizes contributions that advance the fields of interest to the IEEE. For nearly a century, the IEEE Awards Program has paid tribute to technical professionals whose exceptional achievements and outstanding contributions have made a lasting impact on technology, society and the engineering profession. The IEEE Medals and IEEE Technical Field Awards are institution-level awards. They are considered more prestigious than IEEE Society level awards and are administered by IEEE Awards Board. Each year, the IEEE Board of Directors[1] approved the winners of these prestigious medals and awards at their annual board meeting. An IEEE Honors Ceremony[2] is organized and held in New York each year to present the medals and awards to the recipients.
Funds for the awards program, other than those provided by corporate sponsors for some awards, are administered by the IEEE Foundation.
