IEEE Ernst Weber Engineering Leadership Recognition

The IEEE Ernst Weber Engineering Leadership Recognition, now called the IEEE Ernst Weber Managerial Leadership Award, was established by the Board of Directors of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) in 1985. This award is presented "for exceptional managerial leadership in the fields of interest to the IEEE". Recipients of this award will receive a certificate and a crystal sculpture.

The award was initially called the IEEE Engineering Leadership Recognition Award, but in 1996 renamed to honor Ernst Weber. He was the first President of the IEEE and one of the founders of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering.
