IEEE Magnetics Society Membership
Dr. Chih-Huang Lai, Magnetics Society Membership Chair
Ways to Join the Magnetics Society
There are three ways to become a member of the Magnetics Society of the IEEE. Please refer
to the explanations below for various membership options.
- Become a Member of the IEEE and add the Magnetics Society by paying the additional society fee.
- If you are already an IEEE member, you can add the Magnetics Society by going to the IEEE home page http://www.ieee.org/portal/index.jsp then -Membership > Manage your Membership > Add Services and follow the instructions from there. Click here for the complete link.
- If you do not meet the requirements for full IEEE Membership due to insufficient educational qualification or experience then you can join the IEEE as an Associate Member and add the Magnetics Society as above.
- Become a Student Member http://services1.ieee.org/membersvc/member/mags_intro.htm at much reduced rates if you are a student.
- Become an Affiliate of the Magnetics Society. A Society Affiliate is generally a non-IEEE professional who is a member of a professional organization other than IEEE who would benefit from affiliation with one of IEEE's Societies. For an annual Affiliate fee paid to IEEE plus the individual Society's membership dues they are admitted to the membership of that Society. Affiliates are not full IEEE members and are not entitled to any IEEE benefits reserved for IEEE members only. All Affiliate benefits and services derived come directly from the Society they are affiliated with.
To join as an Affiliate just click on http://services1.ieee.org/membersvc/member/mags_intro.htm

Additional Information:
Transactions on Magnetics
Beginning in 2004, members of the IEEE Magnetics Society will receive electronic access to the IEEE Transactions on Magnetics (via IEEE Xplore) plus an annual CD-ROM PDF compilation (to be shipped early in the following year). The annual dues of $20 include these benefits.
Subscriptions to the paper edition of the IEEE Transactions on Magnetics will be a separate option for $20 plus tax. When you renew your membership, you may choose to strike out the item labeled "IEEE Trans on Magnetics" and reduce the total accordingly.
