Description

The IEEE CAS John Choma Education Award honors the individual with exceptional contributions to education in a field within the scope of the CAS Society. Contributions are quantifiable by publication of textbooks, research supervision of both graduate and undergraduate students, short course development, and personal participation in continual education within the field. The award is based on quality, continuity, and originality of contribution, contributions to CAS Society. All CAS Society members are eligible for nomination.

This award was renamed to recognize John Choma who was well-known and respected in CAS Society and community. His passion for the field and for education more than justifies the renaming of this award and CAS is honored to do so in remembrance and honor to him.
