Discover Fellowship

As the highest category of membership, awarded by your peers, an IET Fellowship opens up opportunities to you, both in terms of your career and in giving back to the profession. It strengthens your reputation in the workplace and beyond, giving you access to more fulfilling roles and new challenges.

The Fellows category is made up of engineering and technology professionals from all walks of life. What they have in common is that they have all contributed to the profession in some way; from demonstrating leadership and responsibility, to influence, innovation and beyond.
