Honorary Fellowship

That William Adams (a.k.a Will.i.am) was made an Honorary Fellow for his outstanding contributions to engineering is fantastic - it also intrigued me as to the process involved. Does anyone know?

And I also wondered why the process is not invoked more often to reflect the contribution of the many noteworthy individuals - for example people like Elon Musk whose contributions to engineering and technology are very visible and exceptionally impressive. Is there a nominations process?

    If they can give HonFIET to Will.i
    Am for giving ideas to companies, so he can play with the toys; then they should give the keys of the IET and EC to Elon Musk to do what he wants with them. He's a real life Brunel and Gerry Anderson rolled into one. Those stage one rockets landing in sync, after trip into outer space, is straight out of Thunderbirds. Fantastic!!
