Fellow

A special IFE Board resolution usually awards the prestigious grade of Fellow. However, it may also be applied for by existing MIFireE members.

The FIFireE grade is awarded to those who have demonstrated significant individual responsibility and exceptional contribution to the fire engineering profession over an extended period of time, not normally less than 15 years.

Application Process

To apply for the grade of Fellow with the IFE, email the following to membership@ife-usa.org:

1. A Completed Fellow Application Form
2. A CV or Detailed Biography
3. Two Referee Statements from Current FIFireE Members
4. A personal statement of no more than 500 words detailing the following:
1. Why you feel you should be awarded the grade of Fellow with the IFE.
2. What you will bring to the IFE during your time as a Fellow.

There is no application fee. If your application is successful, you will be asked to pay the difference between your existing MIFireE subscription and the FIFireE subscription in your year of successful application. You will be sent an annual renewal for the Fellow subscription annually thereafter.
