IEEE - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers is a professional association with its corporate office in New York City and its operations center in Piscataway, New Jersey. It was formed in 1963 from the amalgamation of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers and the Institute of Radio Engineers. Today it is the world's largest association of technical professionals with more than 400,000 members in chapters around the world. Its objectives are the educational and technical advancement of electrical and electronic engineering, telecommunications, computer engineering and allied disciplines.
IEEE produces over 30% of the world's literature in the electrical and electronics engineering and computer science fields, publishing well over 100 peer-reviewed journals.
The published content in these journals as well as the content from several hundred annual conferences sponsored by the IEEE are available in the IEEE online digital library, IEEE Xplore, for subscription-based access and individual publication purchases. In addition to journals and conference proceedings, the IEEE also publishes tutorials and the standards that are produced by its standardization committees.

IEEE Standards Association and Wi-Fi
The IEEE 802.11 Working Group started standardizing wireless LANs in 1990!
Structure of IEEEThe following chart show how all the organizational units in IEEE work together. Note that color is used to show association and the cross over of two colors indicates some overlap. Gray is for TAB, light blue is used for MGAB and dark blue is used for Affinity Groups.Section consist of Technical Chapters, Affinity Groups and Student Branches.

IEEE Competitions
IEEEXtreme 24-Hour Programming Competition
IEEEXtreme is a global challenge in which teams of IEEE Student members—advised and proctored by an IEEE member, and often supported by an IEEE Student Branch—compete in a 24-hour time span against each other to solve a set of programming problems.
IEEEXtreme 9.0 will be held 24 October 2015 00:00:00 UTC.
IEEE Competitions
2015 IEEE/IBM Watson Student Showcase

Exercise your skills and creativity by creating a cognitive app using Watson.Participate in the IEEE/IBM Watson Showcase to:• Find out firsthand what cognitive computing is all about• Work with Watson• Set you apart and give you a competitive advantage (teamwork, networking, boosting your resume, etc.)• Receive an IEEE Certificate of Achievement & those all-important bragging rights • Earn a chance to win up to US$2,000 cash prizes
IEEE Competitions
IEEE REGION 8 STUDENT PAPER CONTEST SPC 2016
All IEEE Region 8 Student Branches (SBs) are invited to participate in IEEE Region 8 Student Paper Contest 2016.The deadline to send full student papers for the IEEE R8 SPC 2016 is December 1, 2015.
FINALISTS’ PAPERS WILL BE PRESENTED DURING MELECON 2016, APRIL 18 – 20, 2016, LIMASSOL, CYPRUS

IEEEmadC (Mobile Applications Development Contest)IEEEmadC (Mobile Applications Development Contest) is a new international contest organized by IEEE for all student members across the globe.
IEEE Travel Grants
IEEE Region 8 - VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTION FUNDTravel support for participation in conferences that are located in Region 8 and organised or sponsored by IEEE R8 organisational units.
Region 8 IEEE is quite diverse in nature covering Europe, Africa and the Middle East. It is the fast growing IEEE Region. The average income in various R8 countries differs significantly. That is why a IEEE R8 Voluntary Contribution Fund (IEEE R8 VCF) was created. This fund is fed by voluntary contributions donated by Region 8 members. The money is then used to support members and especially students and graduate student members with low income in their professional and technical activities.
Member of IEEE R8 at least in a second year.Travel to a conference sponsored or co-sponsored by IEEE
Conference within the geographical area of Region 8
The maximum amount provided can not exceed US$1000.
IEEE Travel Grants
IEEE Region 8 Student and Young Professional Congress – SYP
Full travel and accommodation support (from IEEE Region 8 and IEEE Ukraine Section) for ONE person from ONE Student Branch or YP Affinity Group!
IEEE Travel Grants
IEEE Women in Engineering (WIE) Travel Grant ProgramIEEE WIE Travel Grant program provides grants for IEEE WIE members to attend and present at IEEE sponsored conferences or to participate in IEEE WIE sponsored events.
Applicants must have been an IEEE WIE member for at least one year.IEEE WIE Travel Grant Program provides funds for applicants traveling to attend and present at an IEEE sponsored conference, or to participate in IEEE WIE sponsored events.
Travel Grant Limitation up to US$750.
IEEE Grants for Projects
IEEE Standards Education Grants IEEE is offering grants for graduate and upperclassman design project student application papers. Grants include US$500 for students, with additional honoraria for faculty mentors.Eligibility: IEEE is offering grants to both students and faculty mentors to help with graduate and capstone design projects with an industry standards component. IEEE will publish the results as a student application paper.
IEEE Grants for Projects
Engineering Projects in Community Service (EPICS) in IEEEEPICS in IEEE awards grants to university student groups to work on socially innovative projects that may address local community-service needs such as access and abilities, education and outreach, environment, and human services. Projects must be submitted by an IEEE member and involve a non-profit organization partner. Collaboration with a local high school is also encouraged. Typical awards use IEEE funding for project related supplies (as opposed to personnel costs) with award amounts in the US$5,000 to US$10,000 range.
There is no deadline for applications. Applications are accepted throughout the year on a rolling basis. Apply today and help impact your community.
IEEE Grants for Projects
IEEE Foundation2015 Theme & Request for Proposals (RFPs)Increase the understanding of technology and its critical role in meeting global challenges and improving the human condition.
Request for Proposals:For 2015, the IEEE Foundation Grants Program will invest approximately $400,000 to increase the understanding of technology and its critical role in meeting global challenges and improving the human condition.
IEEE Grants for Projects
Special Interest Group on Humanitarian Technology (SIGHT)The IEEE Special Interest Group on Humanitarian Technology (SIGHT) Steering Committee is inviting applications for project funding support. SIGHT groups’ major goal is to create opportunities for members to devote time and talents to humanitarian work consistent with IEEE’s Constitution to “bring the benefits of technology to the entire world.”
IEEE SIGHT will support a wide range of projects, and the level of funding support has been between US$500 and US$20,000. The first 2015 application deadline for funding is May 15. Later deadlines will be July 15 and September 15.
IEEE Grants for Projects
IEEE Student Enterprise AwardThe IEEE Student Enterprise Award provides financial help to Student members who are looking to implement an idea for a project. It enables IEEE Student members to work with others on an engineering project, while simultaneously strengthening Student Branch programs. Topics may be of a technical or non-technical nature from research on cutting edge technology, humanitarian, and community service programs.
Deadline - 1 February (annually) Funding for the project up to US$1,500.
IEEE Benefits from Societies
Each MTT Chapter may receive a financial support up to $1500 per year to send a chapter officer to attend one of the Chapter-Chair meetings held in conjunction with The International Microwave Symposium, The European Microwave Conference, or The Asia Pacific Conference. Additional funding (up to $500) may also be provided for other Regional or country chapter chair meeting attendance but this funding is offered only to those chapters in the Region where the meeting is held.
