About the Individual Service Awards
The IEEE Life Members Individual Service Awards is given annually to 10 Regional Life Members and one Life Member globally to honor superior individual contributions to the Life Members organization.
This award will be based on a Life Members accomplishment during time as a Life Member until December of the preceding year. One award per region and one award globally can be granted annually; however, the award need not be awarded each year if there are no suitable recipients.
