Alan L. Kirsch Award

IEEE Philadelphia Section 2024-25 Student Member Award

Each year, the Philadelphia Section of the IEEE recognizes one of its outstanding Student Members with its Alan L. Kirsch Award, Prize ($500) and recognition at our Annual Awards Ceremony. It is with this in mind that I urge you to nominate a dedicated IEEE Student Member. The nomination process can take as little as one hour, and the recognition that it provides can be significant! The nomination is composed of two parts: (1) a one-page endorsement letter from you, the Counselor of the IEEE Student Branch, and (2) the completion of the Nominee and Background Information with the help from the nominee. The latter is to be reviewed and endorsed by ECE Department Chair. Your attention to this important task, in honor of a dedicated and hard-working IEEE Student Member, is much appreciated by the Philadelphia Section, and goes a long way in the support of your IEEE Student Branches. Sincerely, Dr. Li Bai, Student Activities Co-Chair Philadelphia Section of IEEE
