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?

  • Well said, David re the IET's staff and governance mix.


    And, for those still asking why Will.i.am, for Hon FIET take a look at his bio at http://will.i.am/about/ and see someone who is more of an all-rounder than most of the rest of us.  We are lucky to have someone like him to champion STEM internationally and who actively works with the IET in spreading the message.
