May STEAM TEAMS Meeting: AI-Assisted Multimedia, PhET Sims, Photonics/Microcontroller Demos
May STEAM TEAMS Meeting: AI-Assisted Multimedia, PhET Sims, Photonics/Microcontroller Demos 150 150 ieeeeduweek

Join us for an evening of recognition, mentorship, hands-on learning, and community connection at the next IEEE Pikes Peak Section STEAM-TEAMS Monthly Meeting.  These meetings are in preparation for the 2026 Cool Science Carnival Day and Festival, Oct 3- Oct 18.  Ideally, because of the 8000+ visitors and 100 booths at UCCS last year, we want to have 36  S.T.A.R. (STEAM-TEAMS Ambassadors for outREACH) volunteers/mentors to donate one-hour of their valuable time during this 6-hour event.  This will allow time to have these volunteers visit the other booths with their families.  If anyone would like to contribute in their talent in other ways such as digital marketing, AI-assisted multi-content for short 2-5 minute tutorials on technical topics, social media marketing, fashion, digital and social media marketing, and other logistical support, please let Dr Santiago know at [email protected]

This month’s meeting is a special opportunity to bring together IEEE members, student members, families, guests, and past and present volunteers for an evening of learning, recognition, and community connection.

We will be recognizing our 2025 STEAM-TEAMS participants with challenge coins as a small token of appreciation for the time, service, and encouragement they have given to others through STEM and STEAM outreach.

We will also share a brief AI-Assisted Multimedia, PhET simulations,  Photonics/Microcontroller Demos as a fun introduction to these topics for the Sep-Cool Science Festival and Fair.

This gathering reflects something we deeply value in the IEEE Pikes Peak Section: building not only programs, but people. Through mentorship, hands-on learning, and community engagement, we continue working to make leadership more welcoming, more visible, and more meaningful for the next generation.

If you are interested in:

  • STEM and STEAM activities
  • mentoring students and young professionals
  • family-friendly engineering outreach
  • growing leadership through service and encouragement

we would be glad to have you join us.

10th IEEE Photonics Congress
10th IEEE Photonics Congress 150 150 ieeeeduweek

The IEEE-UG Photonics Student Chapter is organizing its 10th Annual Conference at the University of Guanajuato on September 29–30 in the Engineering Division of the Irapuato–Salamanca Campus. The event will feature eight guest speakers presenting on current topics in photonics, optics, and their technological applications.

This conference continues to solidify its position as a leading forum for academic and scientific exchange, fostering collaboration among students, researchers, and professionals from diverse disciplines. Over two days, there will be keynote lectures, poster sessions, and networking opportunities to promote the dissemination of advances, the generation of innovative ideas, and stronger links between the scientific community and industry.

We invite everyone interested in photonics and related fields to participate and take advantage of this meeting to update their knowledge, establish collaborations, and contribute to regional and national technological development.

Discussion on Sediment Deposition Simulation and Wind Power Issues
Discussion on Sediment Deposition Simulation and Wind Power Issues 150 150 ieeeeduweek

On November 16th 2024, IEEE Photonics Society Student Chapter of Zhejiang Ocean University hosted a hybrid online and offline meeting was held to discuss sediment deposition simulation and wind power-related issues. The session included detailed presentations on advancements in sediment modeling, challenges in predicting deposition patterns, and integrating wind power systems in sediment-heavy regions. Participants exchanged insights on addressing these interdisciplinary challenges and proposed collaborative efforts with external research institutions. The meeting concluded with a lunch gathering, where attendees networked informally and discussed practical applications and research opportunities, fostering stronger connections and potential partnerships.

“Photonics Christmas Tales” – UK&Ireland IEEE Photonics Chapter Student talks competition
“Photonics Christmas Tales” – UK&Ireland IEEE Photonics Chapter Student talks competition 485 254 ieeeeduweek

“Photonics Christmas Tales” is a competition for optics and photonics students around the UK and Ireland. Students will present their recent findings within a talks contest. This format will provide a more engaging experience and let participants communicate with each other. With this event, students will have an excellent opportunity to demonstrate the highlights of their research, boost their professional visibility and network with other local researchers.
