IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society

Dear members, colleagues, and friends of the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society (IMS),

IMS is one of IEEE's founding-era societies, having been established in 1950 and holding 4th position among earliest IEEE Societies. As the 2026 IMS President, I am honoured to welcome you to the IMS website, where you can find a wealth of information about IMS activities and operations.

Feel free to browse our publications, including the IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement (IEEE TIM), the world’s number one journal in the area of general instrumentation and measurement in terms of impact factor, article influence score, and many other metrics, our gold open access journal, the IEEE Open Journal of Instrumentation and Measurement (IEEE OJIM), which is one of the timeliest IEEE gold open access journal in terms of submission to first decision, or our magazine, the IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Magazine (IEEE IMM), a popular source for accessible introductions and overviews of the latest trends and technologies in instrumentation and measurement, with many highly-read and influential articles, tutorials, columns, and departments.

You can also browse our many conferences, including the flagship international instrumentation and measurement technology conference (IEEE I2MTC), and others in medical measurements (IEEE MeMeA), sensor applications (IEEE SAS), measurements in networking and communications (IEEE MNC), Artificial Intelligence-assisted measurements (IEEE AI4IM), power measurements (IEEE AMPS), clock synchronization (IEEE ISPCS), robotics measurements (IEEE ROSE) and many others.

You may also be interested in our many educational programs, such as the Distinguished Lecturer Program, video tutorials, and education awards.

Furthermore, our Membership committee offers many programs to support women in instrumentation and measurement, students, and young professionals. It also enables engagement opportunities for chapters, mentors and mentees, and engineering community services.

Finally, you can benefit from our technical and standard activities, by joining a technical committee or participating in one of our standards, such as the widely popular IEEE 1588.

I am confident that with your contributions and participation, we can continue to grow IMS and take it to new heights. I invite you to take advantage of IMS offerings, and remain in touch through this website and the IMS Newsletter.

Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you in person at our many IMS events in the near future.

Sincerely,
Shervin Shirmohammadi, Ph.D., IEEE Fellow
