Brand Identity Guidelines
Each day, people across the globe are exposed to communication materials from IEEE; whether it be through attending IEEE conferences, reading IEEE publications, or any number of other activities in which IEEE is engaged for the purpose of fostering technological innovation and excellence.
The guidelines below were created to unify these diverse communications and to help them to represent IEEE as a focused, forward-looking, dynamic organization. The ultimate goal is a stronger, more consistent, unified visual presentation of the IEEE brand.

Use of the letters I-E-E-E
|
Only the letters I-E-E-E may be used as the name of the organization. IEEE has grown over the years to represent a much wider array of technical interest areas than "electrical and electronics engineering." Legal documents may carry the full name, “The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.” The use of the IEEE full name is also permitted in the official IEEE seal.
