Fellowship of the IET is for individuals who have demonstrated sustained achievement in their profession.
Fellowship of the IET may be awarded to members who have demonstrated superior individual responsibility, sustained achievement and significant professionalism during their career.
Fellows of the IET are eligible to use the designatory letters FIET (Fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology).
Application for Fellowship is a five part process. You are advised to read through the whole process before beginning your application:
Check that you meet the requirements for Fellowship.
Guidance on who qualifies to act as a referee.
Details on how to submit your application.
The application is reviewed by the assessment panel and chairman and a decision is made.
If you disagree with the assessment panel decision, you can appeal.
If your application for Fellowship is successful, you will join the senior category of membership and have demonstrated long term commitment to the industry. The IET recognises this achievement by publishing a list of recently elected Fellows.
We asked a few of our recently elected Fellows about their thoughts on the process of Fellowship and what it means to them to be recognised amongst their peers.
Once elected to Fellowship, why not get involved, make a difference and ensure that your expertise and skills are utilised by becoming a volunteer?
The IET holds Fellow Networking events for recently elected Fellows and volunteers involved in the Fellow process.
