IEEE Sections, Chapters, and
Student Branches promote community
worldwide by building a network through
local activities. IEEE
Sections meet the technical,
professional and educational needs of
the IEEE members within their geographic
boundaries by working with
their subunits to conduct local
meetings, conferences, and
workshops. In 2005, these units
conducted over 9,000 events.
Section members develop new skills by
taking an active role, gain
management, teamwork and leadership
experience, gain recognition
for accomplishments and recognize the
achievements of others.
Members of the IEEE
automatically become members of their
local IEEE Section, allowing
them to share technical, professional
and personal interests with
others in IEEE's worldwide member
community. The individuals you meet
through your IEEE involvement
are a tremendous networking opportunity
that can open unexpected
doors to your future. In addition,
active involvement in IEEE gives
your career an advantage. You can build
leadership and management
skills that are not always learned in
the classroom or on the job.
These are critical skills for
professional success.

Activities section of
