Volunteers
Come join us! IEEE Region 5 supports and helps provide coordination for all of the Sections and Student Branches in the Region. Region 5 also supports the annual IEEE Green Technologies Conference and Student Competitions.
Please consider volunteering your time. We have many Committee positions available and we are always looking for new candidates for our biannual Officer elections. Even small contributions can be a great help! You don’t need to be an officer to work with us. If you can picture it, let’s make it happen! You’ll get to network with a great team of people from a wide collection of companies and universities across the Southwestern US.
