WHO ARE WE?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is a professional organization supporting the advancement of technology for the benefit of humanity. The roots of this organization go back to the late 1800’s, when electricity became a major component in the development society. Today IEEE is a worldwide organization that provides its members with access to publications, conferences, networking opportunities, and more!​
​The IEEE University of South Florida Student Chapter serves as a bridge between USF and the IEEE national organization. The chapter provides opportunities to network with fellow USF students and professionals from the engineering field.
