Congratulations to the IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Huntsville Chapter! They have been selected from among all EMC chapters worldwide as the recipient of the Most Improved Chapter Award from the international IEEE EMC Society. This award signifies outstanding improvement in membership services and establishing goodwill for the EMC Society. It was presented to the EMC Huntsville Society Chair, Doug Parker, at the International EMC Symposium in Austin, Texas in August of this year.
Under the leadership of Doug and many other local volunteers, the Huntsville EMC Chapter has made a huge impact in the local technical community. Each year, they host frequent technical meetings that are free of charge and open to everyone in the community. EMC brings renowned IEEE Distinguished Lecturers to share their technical knowledge in training sessions and hosts a bi-annual tabletop event that links industry, academia and professionals in the EMC discipline.
Our EMC Society also supports other local organizations and events. This year, they reached out to engineering students by supporting IEEE UAH Student Branch events, speaking to the UAH engineering students, and purchasing EMC technical books as a donation to the UAH library. They donated heavily to the HATS STEDTRAIN grant, a program that links local K-12 school projects with much needed funding. They also co-sponsored the IEEE 125th Anniversary Celebration at the United States Space and Rocket Center.
The IEEE Huntsville EMC Society was chartered in 2006, and under the care of its first Chair, Glenn Shelby, it has consistently provided outstanding technical events to the community. Through the past several years, the EMC Society has continued to gain momentum. Let’s all congratulate Doug and the other volunteers Huntsville’s IEEE EMC Society on this lucrative award.
