NPSS Awards

Looking forward to 2026 Nominations
The deadline for NPSS Awards nominations was January 31st, 2025. It is also not too early to start thinking about the next awards cycle, for which the deadline will be January 31st, 2026.
The Society offers awards for recognition of meritorious contributions and grants-in-aid to support conference travel and project costs. Nominations for the Merit, Shea, Early Achievement, Graduate Scholarship, Birdsall, Barker, Women in Engineering, Kristiansen, Hoffman, Jaszczak, and Knoll Awards should be submitted through the NPSS website.

Detailed information about each award, as well as about several grants, can be found at https://ieee-npss.org/awards/npss-awards/. Nomination forms and instructions are found with each award and grant description as well as a list of former award recipients.
The NPSS community has many outstanding contributors and there are awards for all stages of careers, from graduate students to senior professionals. Please consider nominating someone!
