The IEEE Is...
...A World of Technology
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is the
world's largest technical professional society. Founded in 1884 by a
handful of practitioners of the new electrical engineering discipline,
today's Institute is comprised of more than 320,000 members who
conduct and participate in its activities in 147 countries. The men
and women of the IEEE are the technical and scientific
professionals making the revolutionary engineering advances which
are reshaping our world today.
...Achieving Goals
The technical objectives of the IEEE focus on advancing the theory
and practice of electrical, electronics and computer engineering and
computer science. To realize these objectives, the IEEE sponsors
technical conferences, symposia and local meetings worldwide:
publishes nearly 25% of the world's technical papers in electrical,
electronics and computer engineering; provides educational
programs to keep its members' knowledge and expertise
state-of-the-art. The purpose of all these activities is two fold: (1)
to enhance the quality of life for all peoples through improved
public awareness of the influences and applications of its
technologies; and (2) to advance the standing of the engineering
profession and its members.
...Being a Leader
The IEEE, through its members, provides leadership in areas
ranging from aerospace, computers and communications to
biomedical technology, electric power and consumer electronics.
For the latest research and innovations in the many diverse fields of
electrical and electronics engineering, industry and individuals look
to the IEEE.
If You Qualify, You Should Be a Member!
IEEE membership is open to professionals with varying levels of
academic accomplishment and work experience. Member, Senior
Member and Fellow grades are limited to those who have achieved
professional competence and recognition, as demonstrated by the
college degrees they have received and/or by their work experience.
Associate grade is open to certain technical and nontechnical
applicants who may benefit by membership and participation in the
IEEE and, also, to those individuals progressing through education
and work experience toward Member grade. All members -
Associate, Member, Senior Member and Fellow pay the same low
membership dues and receive the same IEEE membership benefits
and services, although Associates may not vote in IEEE elections or
hold volunteer offices for which the grade of Member or higher is
required. Student member applications are available upon request.
Student members have substantially discounted dues and fees far
below what other members pay.
