Nominate a CEDA Distinguished Lecturer for 2026-2027
Do you know an expert pushing the boundaries of Electronic Design Automation (EDA)? Is there a colleague whose research, teaching, and service are not only exceptional but also inspire everyone who hears them speak?
The IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA) Distinguished Lecturer (DL) Program is looking for individuals like them to help promote the field to the global scientific community, universities, and industry.
What is the DL Program?
The program's goal is to increase awareness about topics relevant to CEDA by establishing a select pool of subject matter experts and scholars. These Distinguished Lecturers then travel to present to IEEE and CEDA Chapters, Sections, universities, and companies around the world, sharing their knowledge and passion for EDA.
