Award & Recognition Program About IEEE CSS Awards The IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) presents several awards annually for technical achievements in the various areas of interest of the Society, as well as awards for service to the Society. An individual need not be a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and/or the CSS to be eligible to receive technical achievement awards of the CSS. Selection of the winner for each of those technical achievement awards is made by a CSS committee whose members have not been involved in the nominations for that award. General information about CSS awards can be obtained from the Chair of the CSS Awards Committee. The CSS Awards program operates within the bylaws of the IEEE. Additional information about IEEE procedures, e.g. how to propose and get approval for a new CSS Award, can be found in the IEEE TAB Awards and Recognitions Manual. The Awards Nominations Chair has been appointed by the IEEE Control Systems Society to help solicit nominations for deserving people for various society awards. Please contact the Awards Nominations Chair with any questions. Award Listing Award Details Below is a complete list of the awards and recognition opportunities for the CSS community.
