The International Society of Automation (ISA) has announced the 2021 ISA Fellows and Celebrating Excellence award recipients. The ISA honors and awards program is the Society's opportunity to formally showcase and celebrate the remarkable achievements and contributions of its members, partners, and other automation professionals.
The esteemed Fellow member grade is one of ISA's highest honors. To earn this distinction, a Senior Member must possess outstanding and acknowledged engineering or scientific attainments, must receive peer evaluations leading to recommendation for election by the Society Admissions Committee, and must be elected by a majority vote of the Society's Executive Board. In ISA’s history, 498 ISA Fellows have been elected.
The Celebrating Excellence awards endeavors to stimulate, enhance, encourage, acknowledge, and reward outstanding contributions to our society and the automation profession by providing an avenue for individuals to compete for recognition within established categories. The Honors & Awards Committee annually receives all award nominations for defined Society awards, reviews the candidate qualifications, and recommends to the Executive Board honorees for approval.
Congratulations to our 2021 awardees for their outstanding achievement—a recognition well deserved!
