Global Sections

The members of the Section are involved in activities that meet their needs and further the missions of IEEE. The purpose of Section activity is to share technical, professional and personal interests with others in the local member community. Upon joining IEEE, members automatically become members of their local IEEE Section.

As of December 2004, there were 307 local Sections spread through ten regions of the world. All members are encouraged to participate in their respective Section activities to keep them aware of pertinent information related to their local unit and IEEE.

While the nature of most Section meetings is administrative, there are several other activities in which Sections participate including socials, award banquets, and educational career workshops.
