SPIE Senior Members

The SPIE Board of Directors has approved a new Senior Member recognition category for implementation in 2008.

SPIE Senior Members are Members of distinction who will be honored for their professional experience, their active involvement with the optics community and SPIE, and/or significant performance that sets them apart from their peers. While similar in some ways to the Society's Fellows program, Senior Member recognition is a separate category that will be more accessible to active Members earlier in their careers, as well as other Members in a broader constituency.

"We are very interested in recognizing more SPIE Members who have contributed their time and expertise to benefit the optics community, and look forward to selecting our first new Senior Members," says Richard Youngworth, 2008 Membership Committee Chair.

A minimum of five years of significant achievement or continuous SPIE Membership (not as a student) is required for nomination as a Senior Member. Senior Members must also have at least 10 years of professional experience, which may include credit for up to six years while earning an academic degree. View Senior Member nomination criteria.

Senior Members can self-nominate or be nominated by a colleague or mentor. The deadline for submitting nomination materials for Senior Member status is 15 October in any given year. Nominations will be reviewed by the SPIE Membership Committee who will then submit their recommendations to the SPIE Board of Directors for approval. Successful candidates will be notified in November of the given year.
