To honor Roger’s legacy and perpetuate his memory the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS) partnered with the IEEE Foundation and Roger’s family to establish the IEEE Roger Brockett Memorial Fund. 

In 1991, Roger was the seventh recipient to be honored with the IEEE Control Systems Award in recognition of his substantial contributions to the field of control systems. This esteemed award acknowledged his pioneering and innovative advancements in nonlinear control, stability, robotics, and control engineering education. Established in 1980, this prestigious Award recognizes outstanding contributions to control systems engineering, science, or technology and carries a cash prize of US$10,000.

To celebrate Roger’s legacy and lasting impact on the control system field, the IEEE Board of Directors approved renaming the IEEE Control Systems Award to honor him. Effective with the 2026 presentation, the award will be known as the IEEE Roger W. Brockett Control Systems Award.
