The IEEE publishes a large portion of the world’s literature on electrical, electronics engineering, and computer and control technologies.
IEEE’s publications are among the world’s most highly cited .

The IEEE has nearly 900 IEEE standards in use, with more than 700 in development at any one time.
The IEEE has 39 Societies and four Councils that focus on the technical needs of its members.
Members have expertise in a wide range of technical areas – from aerospace , computers and telecommunications to biomedicine , electric power and consumer electronics .

Members (?) develop new technologies that can enhance people’s quality of life.
Members and non-members around the globe support IEEE standards development, conferences and a wide range of issues that affect electrical, electronics and computer engineers and their companies.
Members contribute thousands of hours to community and professional activities and organizations.

Members receive awards and are recognized by the IEEE and other organizations for their community, professional and technical achievements.

Organization of IEEE
311 local sections in 10 geographic regions.
About 1,570 chapters comprised of local members with similar technical interests.
39 societies and 5 technical councils that compose 10 technical divisions.
More than 1,430 student branches at colleges and universities in 80 countries.

About Student Branches
A Student Branch gives students the opportunity to meet and learn from fellow students, as well as faculty members and professionals in the field.
A good IEEE Student Branch can be one of the most positive elements in an Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Engineering Technology department.

About Student Branches - 2
IEEE Student Branches are established at over 1,000 universities and colleges throughout the world.
Student Branch activities offer numerous educational, technical, and professional advantages of IEEE membership through special projects, activities, meetings, tours and field trips.

What keeps students interested
Participation in regional conferences, leadership training workshops and develop leadership, interpersonal and team building skills.
Participation in awards, scholarships and project/design programs and student paper contests
Establishment of a Student Branch Library with IEEE's publications

What keeps students interested
Access IEEE online resources and merchandise.
Establishing a World Wide Web page for the student branch.

Support from IEEE
Student Professional Awareness Conferences (S-PACs) help increase awareness of professional issues such as ethics, continuing education, and communication skills.
The Student Professional Awareness Venture (S-PAVe) program gives teams of IEEE Student members the opportunity to develop project proposals to increase professional awareness and receive funding to implement the project.

Support from IEEE - 2
The IEEE also sponsors Regional Student Paper contests with cash awards in each of the ten Regions and promotes outstanding student and faculty counselor recognition award programs.
The IEEE offers rebates and allotments to help Student Branches with operating costs based on their timely submission of their Annual Report and Annual Plan.

Support from IEEE - 3
Upon submission of their Annual Report, Student Branches receive a $2.00 per member rebate.
Upon submission of their Annual Plan, Branches receive $50.00 if they have less than 49 members, and $100.00 if they have 50 or more members, based on membership statistics as of 31 December each year.

Starting a Student Branch
Establishing an IEEE Student Branch requires the signatures of 20 IEEE Student members on a petition.
The petition must specify the name of the Branch, and the names of the Interim Student Chair and faculty member who will serve as Counselor of the Branch.

The petition must also be approved by the Department Chair and two faculty members, who are also IEEE members above student grade.
Three school catalogs outlining accreditation, course curriculum and listing engineering faculty must be submitted to Student Services with the petition.

A completed REP questionnaire must be submitted with the petition.
A Branch constitution must be adopted and submitted to Student Services.
Completed petition should be sent to
