2 The IEEE Then 2 10/13/2015

3 1884: The American Institute of Electrical Engineers is founded A small group of individuals met in New York and founded the AIEE to advance the new field and represent the US at the 1884 International Electrical Exhibition in Philadelphia. Norvin Green, President of Western Union Telegraph and first president of the AIEE Program of the 1884 International Electrical Exhibition, Franklin Institute, Philadelphia Thomas Edison, one of the founders of the AIEE

4 1912: The Institute of Radio Engineers is founded Radio, a new electrical technology, arose in the first decade of the twentieth century. With the new industry came a new society, IRE, modeled on the AIEE, but devoted to radio, and later increasingly to electronics Guglielmo Marconi and George Kemp with equipment used in transatlantic wireless telegraphy 1922 Triode vacuum tube inventor Lee de Forest with a radio 1912 Radio telegraph operators communications with the sinking Titanic demonstrated the power of radio

5 AIEE + IRE = IEEE The idea that there should be one organization for all electrical engineers was an old one, and became more powerful as the profession expanded beyond its separate roots in power and radio. In 1962, the boards and memberships of the two institutes agreed to merge. On January 1, 1963, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers was born with 150,000 members Symposium on the proposed merger, IRE National Convention The badge of the new IEEE combined the right hand rule from the IRE with the kite from the AIEE Special merger issue of the Proceedings of the IRE

6 The IEEE Today A not-for-profit association IEEE = Institute for Electrical & Electronic Engineers World s largest technical society with over 430,000 members in 160 countries Four core areas of focus Membership association Publishing company Conference organizer Standards developer 6 10/13/2015

29 Scholarships and travel grants

30 Grants to Attend IEEE Events IEEE offers a number of Student Travel Grants to assist Student Members in attending conferences Some grants based on need; others are designated for students who have papers that have been accepted by an IEEE conference Grants are offered by 11 IEEE societies: The IEEE Foundation supports various Education Funds to support the brightest and most capable young minds Additional student grant opportunities may be found by visiting an IEEE Conference Web site

31 Prestigious student competitions

32 IEEE Xtreme Programming Competition What is it? IEEEXtreme is a worldwide contest in which teams of students compete over a 24-hour time span against each other to solve a set of programming problems Who participates? Teams of 2-3 students/graduate students and their proctors Why is it unique? Worldwide, simultaneous! International bragging rights Top prize is a trip anywhere in the world to the IEEE event of the top team s choice

33 IEEE Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS) Organizes university and high-school students to work on engineering-related projects for local area non-profit organizations. Empowers student branches and IEEE GOLD groups to work with high school students on community service-related engineering projects The student branch will identify a non-profit organization that has a project that is important to undertake and has appropriate engineering-content for their students.

34 How to apply for EPICS funding Since 2009, 54 projects have received funding Student branches can apply by sending completed application form along with a detailed budget to epics-high@ieee.org. Applications may be submitted at any time throughout the year. Feedback within 30 days. For more information, please visit

35 Examples of EPICS Around the World Drexel University (U.S.) In partnership with the Philadelphia Clean Air Council and a local high-school developed an air quality sensor network for monitoring residential areas in South Philadelphia. National Institute of Technology (India) Designed a program for smart phones to help children with cognitive disabilities to communicate by using photographic icons to identify their needs. University of Cape Town (South Africa) Developed a wind power turbine out of scrap material which was able to deliver 50 W of power.
