IEEE CTSoc Distinguished Lecturers Program:

Call for Nominations

Dear Colleagues,

The IEEE Consumer Technology Society (CTSoc) accepts nominations for Distinguished Lecturers (DLs), as part of the Distinguished Lecturer Program (DLP). The CTSoc DLP connects excellent speakers among consumer technology experts with global CTSoc community via webinars, and in-person with local Chapters within their geographical area.

Appointment as the CTSoc DL is a major Society recognition.

The candidates should be:

·        individuals of distinction who are members of the IEEE and of the IEEE Consumer Technology Society

·        recognized experts in their field of work, research, teaching, or service activities

·        inspiring speakers

Expectations:

Distinguished Lecturers should prepare up to three lecture topics in their field of expertise for webinars that will be posted in the Society Website. The Distinguished Lectures should be available to travel within geographical area upon contact by the Chapters and approval by the Chair of DLP Committee. Reasonable travel expenses will be covered if the Chapters request is approved.

Nomination process:

The DLs are selected by the DLP Committee and announced after approval by the CTSoc BoG.

The DL nominee must be nominated by CTSoc Chapter, CTSoc conference technical committee, or CTSoc member. If you are looking for a nominator we encourage you to contact the chair of the most relevant CTSoc entity – Chapter or Conference who will provide further help.

In pool of candidates, in case of the tight race, the Committee will give advantage to a candidate with publications in IEEE CTSoc Transaction or Magazine, or who participated at IEEE CTSoc supported events, such as conferences, workshops, tutorials.

The nomination form can be found attached to this email or online at CESoc site.
