This is the premiere awards event in IEEE Canada where outstanding Canadian engineers and scientists are recognized for their important contributions to our profession in two categories; techical excellence and outstanding service to IEEE and the profession in general. Up to 11 major awards are presented - each recipient receives a plaque and a medal (these medals are sterling silver with the top award in each of the two categories being gold). All attendees will have an opportunity to come to know a little about these unique individuals as well as enjoying an excellent banquet in pleasant surroundings. For students it is a rare opportunity to learn about the path to success you are choosing for your technical career.
