Activities

The goal of the Region 5 Chapter will be to facilitate IEEE-EPS relevant activities locally. Our charter is to generate interest in benefiting the community through education, networking, and professional development. The activities we are planning in our first six months are:

• Reaching out to local members in raising awareness of this new Chapter.
  Conducting surveys and interviews to help us identify the technical and social needs and interests of Chapter members. The results of these surveys should help us plan activities accordingly while focusing on the locale’s profile.
• Holding two meetings allowing members to meet each other and network.
• Additionally, we plan to initiate and follow through with the following activities to keep the members and volunteers excited. These are:
  Organize inter-chapter joint meetings, seminars, symposiums, and webinars.
• Arrange for guest speakers, develop workshops, and plan for social functions.
• Invite academia, industry, and IEEE distinguished lecturers.
• Provide valuable opportunities for members to network at a local level, enabling personal and professional growth.
• Facilitate academic/industry collaboration and soliciting local government/academic support of chapter activities.
