The candidate's highest completed college degree counts toward that time as follows: 5 years for a doctorate, 4 for masters, 3 for baccalaureate, or 2 for associate degree</p> </li> <li>At least 5 years of professional ACM membership in the last 10 years (to verify membership eligibility, contact <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="4e2f2d23262b223e0e2f2d2360213c29">[email protected]</a>)</li> </ol> <h2 id="h-selection-criteria">Selection Criteria</h2> <p>Successful candidates for Distinguished Member must have achieved a significant level of accomplishment or made a significant impact in the field of computing, computer science, and/or information technology. This means that he/she demonstrates substantial depth and breadth of understanding of the field, including the creation of new ideas and the synthesis of work by others. In addition, it is expected that a Distinguished Member serves as a mentor and role model guiding technical career development for others and exhibits eminence by contributing to the field beyond the norm. The nomination must provide clear evidence of at least two of the following:</p> <ul> <li>Significant professional leadership: project/engineering leadership, research leadership, education leadership, management, etc.</li> <li>Significant technical contributions: publications in refereed journals or conference proceedings, textbooks and/or novel curricula, success product engineering/development, patents, standards, etc.</li> <li>A track record of technical and professional awards</li> <li>Substantial professional contributions: service to professional societies, review committees, conference committees, standards committees, etc.</li> </ul> <p>The nomination statement is carefully reviewed and evaluated. However, the Committee gives particular weight to the supporting evidence provided by the endorsers, who must be individuals with personal knowledge of the candidate's achievements and impact.</p> <h2 id="h-nominations">Nominations</h2> <p>Candidates for Distinguished Member must be nominated by another ACM professional member, preferably one who holds a senior role in the computing field. To submit a nomination, log into your <a href="https://myacm.acm.org/">myACM Web Account</a> and select 鈥淣ominate a Distinguished Member" from the "Awards & Recognition" tab. The requirements for nominations and endorsements are described below; further details and examples will be found under <a href="/distinguished-members/faq">Frequently Asked Questions</a>. Nominators and endorsers are strongly encouraged to read the <a href="/binaries/content/assets/awards/advice-for-award-nominators-and-endorsers.pdf">Advice to Nominators and Endorsers</a>.</p> <p>All materials must be submitted in English.  Each nomination involves several components:</p> <ul> <li>Basic information about the candidate (the email associated with the Candidate's ACM membership).</li> <li>Concise statement (maximum of 15 words) naming the most important technical or professional achievement(s) for which the candidate should be recognized. Avoid abbreviations, acronyms (unless explained) or technical jargon which may not be obvious to evaluators.</li> <li>Candidate's educational background, including institution, degree, year conferred, and major discipline.</li> <li>Candidate's most significant professional accomplishments and their foundational, technical, commercial, or other achievements (limited to 750 words).</li> <li>Up to 8 specific contributions epitomizing the significance and lasting impact of those accomplishments (e.g., publications, patents, products) (limited to 300 words).</li> <li>Candidate's most significant leadership roles in ACM or other service activities (limited to 300 words).</li> <li>Formal professional recognition the candidate has received for their contributions, such as awards or other honors (limited to 300 words).</li> <li>Supporting letters from  4-5 endorsers (see below).</li> <li>After submitting the nomination, the nominator will be sent an encrypted URL to forward to endorsers enabling them to access the endorsement site.</li> </ul> <h2 id="h-endorsements">Endorsements</h2> <p>A minimum of 4, and a maximum of 5, endorsements are required. At least 2 of endorsers must be current ACM professional members, preferably individuals who are themselves ACM Fellows or ACM Distinguished Members.</p> <p>Endorsers must have personal knowledge of the candidate's work. The endorsers attest that they know the candidate's work, that the nomination accurately describes his/her achievements, and that they believe the accomplishments meet the criteria for Distinguished Member. Most importantly, they provide a brief endorsement statement giving their personal assessment of the candidate's key achievements and impact on the computing field (limited to 2,500 characters, including spaces). It's the nominator's responsibility to ensure that each endorser will make individual, substantive comments that will strengthen the case for the candidate.  Please note:  the nominator cannot also serve as one of the endorsers.</p> <p>The nominator must contact potential endorsers to get their consent. We also recommend that endorsers be sent the information about what endorsements should include (the final section of the <a href="/binaries/content/assets/awards/advice-for-award-nominators-and-endorsers.pdf">Advice to Nominators and Endorsers</a>); many nominations fail simply because the endorsers didn't receive good instructions from the nominator. We strongly recommend that the nominator review a draft of each endorsement before it is submitted. Upon submission, nominators will receive an email from <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#f2969b81869b9c95879b819a9796b293919fdc9d8095"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="82e6ebf1f6ebece5f7ebf1eae7e6c2e3e1efacedf0e5">[email protected]</span></a> containing a unique link to the endorsement form for their nomination. The link to this form must be sent to the endorsers. NOTE: After submitting the endorsement form, each endorser will be sent an email from <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#0165687275686f667468726964654160626c2f6e7366"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="197d706a6d70777e6c706a717c7d59787a7437766b7e">[email protected]</span></a> with an encrypted URL which must be used to confirm the endorsement. Please warn endorsers in advance that they should expect that email and be prepared to respond to it promptly (or should contact <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#9cf8f5efe8f5f2fbe9f5eff4f9f8dcfdfff1b2f3eefb"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="96f2ffe5e2fff8f1e3ffe5fef3f2d6f7f5fbb8f9e4f1">[email protected]</span></a> if it doesn't arrive).</p> <p>Further information is available on the <a href="/distinguished-members/faq">Frequently Asked Questions</a> webpage.
