• Many ideas for improvement, but would like to collaborate with students and faculty to find ways to improve quality of engineering education

Local IEEE EdSoc Chapter Goals (Cont’d)

• To leverage strong network to collaborate on ways to make engineering education better!

• Northeast (especially our NYS Capital Region) is becoming a technology hotspot and there are many technical schools, so what better place to form an IEEE Education Society Chapter?
