Where Do Students Fit Into the IEEE Organization?
04 April, 2016
This section provides more information about the structure of IEEE. The table is a table shows organizational levels from your Student Branch all the way to the global organization that is IEEE. I also encourage you to take a look at the IEEE Organizational Roster to see all the groups you can become involved with in IEEE. Volunteering to lead a robotics team, organize a school event, or grow a student branch could have a big impact on your career as a student. Beyond being a student you can volunteer to organize a conference, contribute to a technical standard, or just meet other professionals in your area of interest. Use IEEE as a resource throughout your career!
Find your Student Branch! | Student Branch Level Typically one per school, this is where you can make a real impact in your school and local community! Inspire students at your school to become involved in geographical and technical organizations all over the world. Become an industry leader using the IEEE Network! You can see all of the organizations within IEEE by looking at the Organizational Roster. More helpful information about running your student branch can be found here, but you have a lot of freedom in how you organize your branch. Feel free to play to your strengths as a leader! |
