I am most pleased to inform you of upcoming plans to conduct a Strategic Planning Workshop. The results will play a significant role in the continuous quest of the Society to achieve ever higher levels of excellence. We strive to be an indispensable resource for those who want to achieve success in our field.
We exist for the benefit of our members and for our profession as well as for the greater good of humanity. Some of you may remember that four years ago we engaged in a similar initiative which produced, among other things, four strategic goals which we have striven to use in guiding us in how we develop and resource programs for your benefit. We intend to build upon these to continue our status as a stellar IEEE Society, and a magnet for new members because of the value we create for you.
In keeping with our tradition of coordinating our Board of Governors Meeting with a major conference, we will be tentatively holding the summer meeting on 12 June prior to and in conjunction with the 2022 IEEE Symposium on VLSI Technology and Circuits set for 12-17 June. The Strategic Planning Workshop will be on 10-11 June and will precede the Board Meeting. The Workshop participants will be a select group of past, present and future leaders of the Society. All other EDS members are invited to observe the deliberations if you find yourself in this locale on these dates. But whether you are attending or not we will be soliciting your inputs. Stay tuned for details in the EDS Newsletter and in Society Briefs. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the EDS Executive Office – [email protected].

EDS Awards
Nomination Deadline Extended until 21 March 2022 - IEEE EDS Region 9 Outstanding Student Paper Award
Created to promote, recognize, and support meritorious research achievement on the part of Latin American and Caribbean students, and their advisors, through the public recognition of their published work, within the IEEE Electron Devices Society’s field of interest.
Nominees must be enrolled at a higher education institution located in a Latin American country. Papers should be written in English on an electron devices related topic.
The prize will be presented at either the IEEE Latin American Electron Devices Conference (LAEDC) or the IEEE Symposium on Microelectronics Technology and Devices (SBMicro). In addition to a recognition certificate, the recipient will receive a subsidy of up to US$1,500 to attend the conference, where the award is to be presented, and 3 years IEEE and EDS student membership.
Help to recognize the efforts of outstanding volunteers by nominating individuals for one of the prestigious IEEE EDS Awards including:
- EDS J.J. Ebers Award – Deadline: 1 July 2022 - EDS Education Award – Deadline: 1 September 2022 - EDS Lester F. Eastman Award – Deadline: 1 July 2022 - EDS Robert Bosch Micro and Nano Electro Mechanical Systems Award – Deadline: 2 October 2022 - EDS Early Career Award – Deadline: 15 August 2022
On-demand access to valuable technical information, such as "Energy-Efficient Integrated Nano-Optoelectronics for Real World Applications," is available in the EDS Resource Center. Many courses provide the option to earn PDHs.
All IEEE members are encouraged to update their technical interest profiles in their accounts whenever they join a new Society, make career moves, or change email addresses. Up-to-date IEEE account information is vital in helping IEEE and its societies tailor messages to your interests.
Sign in with your IEEE Account, and make changes where needed.
The IEEE Electron Devices Society invites the submission of nominations for the IEEE EDS Early Career Award. This award is presented annually to promote, recognize, and support early career technical contributions within the Electron Devices Society's field of interest.
