Empowering Women in Signal Processing: A Celebration of Innovation and Inclusion

By: 
Behnaz Ghoraani, Ph.D.

As we celebrate Women’s History Month, the Women in Signal Processing (WISP) Committee of the IEEE Signal Processing Society is excited to showcase our ongoing initiatives and highlight the contributions of women to the field. Our commitment to fostering an inclusive environment supports the professional and academic growth of women engineers and scientists globally.

Webinar Series and Career Panels: The “Career Advancement in Signal Processing” webinar series has been a cornerstone of our efforts, featuring prominent female leaders from academia and industry. These webinars provide insights into navigating careers and overcoming professional challenges. Additionally, our career panels at IEEE flagship conferences offer live opportunities for learning and networking, further supporting career growth.

Highlighting Achievements in IEEE eNewsletters: Regular interviews with leading women in the field are featured in IEEE eNewsletters, celebrating their achievements and sharing their inspiring stories with our community. These articles highlight individual successes and serve as a beacon encouraging more women to pursue and excel in signal processing. Read more.

Support for Professional Recognition: Recognizing the importance of professional development, WISP actively encourages and supports women in applying for various IEEE awards. We offer assistance with applications for IEEE Senior Member and Fellow recognitions, aiming to elevate the professional status of women within our technical community. Learn more.
