IEEE PELS Modeling and Control Technical Achievement Award
The Modeling and Control Technical Achievement Award of the IEEE Power Electronics Society is established in 2012 to honor innovators and researchers who have made outstanding and sustained technical contributions to the advancement of power electronics in the area of modeling and control. The award is administrated by the PELS Technical Committee on Power and Control Core Technologies, and would be made annually. The Award Committee hereby solicits nominations for any award. The award recipient has to be an active IEEE member; there are no other restrictions as to nationality, age, gender, or IEEE member grade. The award is to be presented annually at COMPEL. The award recipient will receive an honorarium of US $1500, a suitably engraved plaque, and an award certificate.
The criteria established for this award include:
Quality of technical achievement an dcontribution to the field
Enhancement of technology
Impact on the relevant technical community and the profession
Benefit to society
The quality of the nomination
If you would like to nominate an IEEE member for the Modeling and Control Technical Achievement Award, please go to our IEEE Society Awards Application System. To identify as nominator, you will be asked in the beginning of this process to log in your existing IEEE account or to register for a new one. Subsequently you should choose Modeling and Control Technical Achievement Award and enter the required data and documents. Please note that you may submit up to two endorsement letters, containing the following: Name, title, contact data, main field of interest of the endorser, relationship between the endorser and the nominee, achievements of the nominee with respect to the selection criteria indicated in the award description, the reason why the endorser personally recommends the nominee for the award, signature of the endorser and date. Nominations received up to March 31st will be considered in the current year. If you have any questions please send them to PELS Awards Committee via pels-awards-nominations@ieee.org.
