2019 Executive

The operation of the IEEE London Section is managed by the Section Executive committee, whose members are elected or appointed every two years. The officers are elected by the membership of the Section – the remainder are appointed by the Section Chair. The significant procedures relating to Section operations are detailed in the bylaws. We are always looking for IEEE members to assist in these volunteer activities. If you are interested in finding out more about becoming a Section or Committee volunteer, please contact the Section Chair whose email address is provided below.

We are trying to prevent email gleaning robots from reading our email addresses, so we have adopted the use of [at] to foil them. Copy the email address into your email client and change the [at] to the normal @ symbol before sending your email to any of the people listed below.
