Dear AP-S Members:

The IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) election of President-Elect and four Members to the Administrative Committee (AdCom) is now open. We hope you, as members, will exercise your vote and help choose the society’s future direction. The voting ballot (which also contains the detailed information on the candidates) can be found via the “Vote Now” button below.

In AP-S, President Elect and all AdCom Members are elected by the entire society membership, rather than appointed by AdCom. Such highly democratic election policies and procedures in our Society are pretty unique within the entire IEEE, so please take advantage of them. Furthermore, quite unique is geographic distribution of our AdCom, where the candidates for the President Elect and AdCom Members alternate annually between different IEEE Regions.

View the video message by AP-S President Christophe Fumeaux on the importance of your vote.

Eligible voting members for this election include current IEEE AP Society members with active membership (as of 5 August 2025). Student Members are ineligible to vote; however, Graduate Student Members are eligible to vote. Voting must be completed no later than 7 October 2025. The online voting site will close at 4:00 pm Eastern Time (EST).

On this page, we provide you with a quick and effective way to access and assess important information on the candidates in the election, and then please proceed with your vote.

IMPORTANT: The order of candidates in each category is in alphabetical order of their last name and is by no means an indication of any preference by IEEE AP-S.
