The IEEE (Eye-triple-E) is a non-profit, technical professional association of more than 360,000 individual members in approximately 175 countries. The full name is the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc., although the organization is most popularly known and referred to by the letters I-E-E-E.
Through its members, the IEEE is a leading authority in technical areas ranging from computer engineering, biomedical technology and telecommunications, to electric power, aerospace and consumer electronics, among others.
We are the leading IEEE student branch in Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus which has received wide acclaim over the past years for its exemplary performance. We have won many prestigious accolades at local, national levels in various fields. In addition we also have good membership! JOIN US!.
Join IEEE today and get all the benefits of IEEE membership.
The IEEE provides learning opportunities within the engineering sciences, research and broadly, technology. The goal of the IEEE education programs is to ensure the growth of skill and knowledge among the technical profession and to foster individual commitment to continuing education among IEEE members, the engineering and scientific community, and the general public.
Why You Should Love Engineering?
The most commonly asked questions by engineering students are "Why should I love engineering" and "What will I do as an engineer". Now we'll try to answer those questions briefly.
First of all you'll have the power to make a difference! By becoming an engineer, you can help solve problems that are important to society. You could be controlling and preventing pollution, developing new medicines, creating advanced technologies, even exploring new worlds.
You'll have money and job security! Engineers have significantly higher starting salaries than do college graduates with bachelor's degrees in many other fields. After 4 years of college, you could be making minimum $36,000 a year. And society will always need people, like engineers, who solve problems and come up with new ways of thinking about and doing things. Learn more about engineering careers.
You'll be working with other talented people! Engineering is a team effort. As an engineer you may be working on projects with experts in many different fields and people from different backgrounds - even different countries.
You'll have lots of options! Engineers work everywhere: in big and small cities, rural communities, even remote wilderness areas. Some work business offices or classrooms, others in factories or research labs; some work outdoors or even in outer space! Some engineers go into medicine, law, business management, or policy. An engineering education will prepare you for many different careers.
You'll get to do cool stuff! Be the first to develop or try out a new technology, like a flying car or an undersea house. Design and build virtual reality amusement parks. Discover and patent a new material that can mend broken bones or cure arthritis. Engineers will be involved in making all the wonders of the future a reality.
