IEEE History Center programs of support |
|
The IEEE History Center offers three different programs of support annually for scholars pursuing the history of electrical engineering and computing: - An internship for an advanced undergraduate, graduate student, or recent Ph.D.
- A dissertation fellowship for an advanced graduate student or recent Ph.D.
- a Post-Doctoral Fellowship for a recent Ph.D.
The internship and the dissertation fellowship are funded by the IEEE Life Members Committee; the Post-Doc is funded by Rutgers University. The internship and the post-doc require residence at the IEEE History Center, on the Rutgers University Campus in New Brunswick, New Jersey, USA; there is no residency requirement for the dissertation fellowship.

A farewell to Clementina Saduwa |
 The unexpected death of Clementina Saduwa, our friend and colleague, fills us with grief and sorrow. Clementina, the first ever IEEE Region 8 Women in Engineering Coordinator, was attacked on her way home from work and died a few hours later in the hospital from injuries on 23 January 2007.
Clementina brought a tremendous amount of enthusiasm, energy and dedication to the IEEE. She was an amazing person that touched many people who were fortunate enough to know her. Her smile and kindness will stay with us forever.
Rest in peace Clementina, we miss you! |

You and The Future - Call for Papers |
|
20-21 April 2007, Stockholm, Sweden
 This workshop will focus on the aging phenomenon. In several West-European countries, the drastic demographic changes have caused intellectual unrest and sometimes even action. This is an interesting social phenomenon, as most pensioners are not disabled, but capable and willing to work. The aim of the workshop is to take an inventory of what is happening, to brainstorm on more reasonable future scenarios, and to facilitate coordination and support for further initiatives. Authors are invited to submit a one-page abstracts by February 2, 2007 February 16, 2007 (extended). For more details please see http://www.ieee.se/yatf .
