EATCS Fellows
The EATCS Fellows Program is established by the Association to recognize outstanding EATCS Members for their scientific achievements in the field of Theoretical Computer Science. The Fellow status is conferred by the EATCS Fellows-Selection Committee upon a person having a track record of intellectual and organizational leadership within the EATCS community. Fellows are expected to be “model citizens” of the TCS community, helping to develop the standing of TCS beyond the frontiers of the community.
In order to be considered by the EATCS Fellows-Selection Committee, candidates must be nominated by at least four EATCS Members. Please verify your membership at http://www.eatcs.org/.
The EATCS Fellows-Selection Committee 2017 consists of
- Rocco De Nicola (IMT Lucca, Italy)
- Paul Goldberg (Oxford, UK, chair)
- Anca Muscholl (Bordeaux, France)
- Dorothea Wagner (Karlsruhe, Germany)
- Roger Wattenhofer (ETH Zurich, CH)
Submit by December 31 of the current year for Fellow consideration by email to the EATCS Secretary (

). The subject line of the email should read "EATCS Fellow Nomination - <surname of candidate>".
The aforementioned members of the EATCS were selected by the EATCS Fellow Selection Committee, after examining the nominations received from our research community. The EATCS Fellow Selection Committee for 2014 consisted of
- Rocco De Nicola (IMT Lucca, Italy),
- Paul Goldberg (Oxford, UK),
- Anca Muscholl (Bordeaux, France; chair),
- Dorothea Wagner (Karlsruhe, Germany) and
- Roger Wattenhofer (ETH Zurich, CH)
The EATCS Fellows Program was established by the association last year to recognize outstanding EACTS members for their scientific achievements in the field of Theoretical Computer Science. The EATCS is very proud to have the above-mentioned members of the organization as its first fellows.
