INTELEC ^® Fellowship

The INTELEC Technical Committee of PELS sponsors the IEEE Joseph John Suozzi INTELEC ^® Fellowship Award in Power Electronics. This fellowship is named in honor of the late Dr. Joseph J. Suozzi, a founder and long-time leader of INTELEC . This grant of $15,000 is made annually to an electrical engineering graduate student studying in an area of power electronics applicable to communications systems. The award is made on the basis of merit of a proposed project or study area deemed progressive and directly relevant to communications energy systems.

This fellowship is international and is therefore open to electrical engineering graduate students in all countries. It is a one-time grant to an individual and is not renewable.

Interested electrical engineering graduate students must submit:

• An essay not exceeding one page in length that clearly establishes the rationale and technical
  basis for the proposed project, outlines the method of approach, and explains how the proposed
  project in power electronics is specifically relevant to the powering of communications systems.
  
  The essay must be on a separate page, and MUST NOT contain information, including references, which allows
  the reader to identify the applicant by name, their research collaborators, the applicant's institution, or
  the applicant’s academic advisor/supervisor. If the Applicant feels compelled to include references as part
  of the essay content, the references must be provided on a page separate from the essay page.
• Evidence of student enrollment status at time of application and during the period the proposed project would be undertaken.
• The candidate's IEEE Membership Number.
• A short (no more than one page) letter of support from the Applicant’s Faculty Advisor or Study Supervisor
  confirming support for the proposed study project and attesting to the Applicant’s academic capability to
  undertake the study. (A transcript of the Applicant’s grades should not be submitted).

The above information must be lodged by March 31 in the year of consideration.

Applications must be submitted using the the IEEE Society Awards Application System. The system opens on 1 January each year.
