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?

    Thanks for your reply Roy. The IET should really show membership and professional titles against HonFIET awards; otherwise how can anyone tell if certain catagories are being recognised? The other point is I was hoping you might comment on my previous thread to you - mistakenly addressed to Hamish - about TMIET(to MIET); MIET(to AFIET); and FIET remain unchanged? Too controversial?
