2025 DL Nominations–Deadline: 1 October 2024
The IEEE Nanotechnology Council (NTC) is seeking nominations for distinguished lecturers. The nomination deadline is 1 October 2024. The NTC has created a distinguished lecturers program to enhance the visibility of NTC among nanotechnology societies. The NTC Distinguished Lecturers are appointed to honor excellent speakers who have made technical, industrial or entrepreneurial contributions of high quality to the field of nanotechnology and science, and to enhance the technical activities of the Nanotechnology Council chapters and student branches. Consideration is given to having a well-balanced variety of speakers who can address a wide range of topics of current interest in the fields covered by the Society.
The term for the Lecturers is from 1 January until 31 December of 2025. The Lecturers serve for a one-year term and may be reappointed for one additional year with the approval of the NTC Distinguished Lecturer Committee. A budget will be provided to each Lecturer to give lectures for NTC Chapters and Branches based on the availability of funding through the NTC. DLs are expected to give a minimum of 2 lectures per year as part of their commitment to serve.
Candidates for DLs may be nominated by any current IEEE member, using the IEEE NTC Distinguished Lecturer Nomination Form. Self-nomination is not accepted. Endorsements are not required but up to three are recommended.
The selection of distinguished lectures will be made by the Distinguished Lecturer Committee, a subcommittee of the Education Committee chaired by the VP Educational Activities, and approved by the NTC ExCom.
Please submit the nomination by midnight (US Pacific Time) on 1 October 2024, via email to the VP Educational Activities, Luca Pierantoni, or online using the form found on the website.
