Larry Larson

Topic:

Senior Member Elevation

Objective: This event is to support the upgrade of West Area IEEE Members to Senior Membership level. The event will be led by Lawrence Larson who holds the position of Sr. Membership Chairman for both the Central Texas Section and Region 5.

 At this meeting, I have several objectives around the development of Senior Members and a Senior Member Program for your Sectioin.

For the Section - Benefits of elevating your members will be described and established Senior Members will be encouraaged to at least serve as references and possibly lead the mission locally.

For Members - Larry will describe the successful Sr. Membership application, work with attendees to develop their own application following this example. When the application is electronically submitted local leadership will be assisting to provide appropriate technical Reference Writers.

About the Speaker

Dr. Lawrence Larson, is a semi-retired Professor of Practice in the Electrical Engineering Program of the Ingram School of Engineering at Texas State University. He continues on a part-time basis teaching Semiconductor Device Physics and Semiconductor Manufacturing to the next generation making his renewed threats to actually retire somewhat a standing joke in the Department [16 years and counting].

  Previously, he had a 20 year career at SEMATECH culminating as the Associate Director of the Front End Processes Division. Key achievements during that period were the manufacturing improvement of mega-volt and low energy ion implanters, development of vertical furnace technologies and early materials development for high-k and metal gate technologies.

  Of connected interest to the presentation: Dr. Larson currently serves as the Region 5 and CTS Representative to the MGA Admissions & Advancement Committee, Past-Chair of the Central Texas Section of the IEEE, leads the CTS Student Activities effort, is the faculty advisor for the Texas State University Student Branch and HKN Chapter and is a Regional VP and Newsletter Editor for the Electron Devices Society.
