IEEE Student Membership Awareness and Orientation Session 2026

IEEE Student Membership Awareness and Orientation Session 2026 150 150 ieeeeduweek

The IEEE Student Branch is organizing the IEEE Student Membership Awareness and Orientation Session 2026 to introduce students to the benefits and opportunities available through IEEE membership.

This session aims to motivate students toward innovation, technical learning, research activities, professional networking, and leadership development through active participation in IEEE. Participants will gain insights into IEEE societies, conferences, workshops, scholarships, competitions, volunteering opportunities, and global professional communities.

The session will also provide guidance on the IEEE membership registration process and explain how students can actively engage in IEEE Student Branch activities at local and international levels.

“Why Would Engineers Show Up at a Park on a Sunday?” Looking for 4-6 Volunteers

“Why Would Engineers Show Up at a Park on a Sunday?” Looking for 4-6 Volunteers 150 150 ieeeeduweek

Because five minutes with a curious kid could change a life—and the future of engineering.

Join IEEE Pikes Peak and the STEAM-TEAMS initiative for a high-impact outreach opportunity at the Filipino-American Independence Day Celebration on Sunday, June 15th, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at Fountain Creek Regional Park.

We’re looking for 4–6 IEEE volunteers to help lead hands-on STEM demos for K–12 students and families—from solar-powered salakots to rubber-band-powered jeepneys and glowing Philippine flag circuits.

This isn’t just a cultural festival. It’s a proving ground for:

  • Making engineering relevant and fun in underserved communities

  • Practicing engineering leadership through community impact

  • Inspiring the next generation of problem solvers—one curious question at a time

Whether you’re mentoring, managing, or measuring outcomes—this is a chance to engineer more than systems. It’s a chance to engineer trust.

Webmaster/Past Section Chair, IEEE Pikes Peak Section and Region 5 Educational Activities Coordinator (REAC)

IEEE Baltimore Robot Challenge – in person component

IEEE Baltimore Robot Challenge – in person component 150 150 ieeeeduweek

Robot Challenge competition including time trials for robots and oral presentations by the student teams.

This is an exciting event for Middle School and High School students who have built robots from scratch.  We need Judges!  The interaction with working engineers is invaluable.  Competition ends early afternoon, depending on the number of entries.  Most judging will be completed by noon.

Please join us for an entertaining event for all who participate.

Making the most of your Education

Making the most of your Education 150 150 ieeeeduweek

DeVry University-SoCal student branch (Unit STB61901)

 

Presents the Following Workshop:

 

Workshop Title: Making the most of your Education: A look at DeVry Student Sam Droddy’s career journey. Presentation includes projects demos including building a Calculator.

 

Presenter: DeVry Student Sam Droddy. Data Analyst.

 

Date: Friday Feb 16, 2024

Time:  1 pm. PST

Duration: 55 minutes

Location:  Click here to join the meeting

Meeting ID: 260 633 206 896
Passcode: Cn73vr

 

Topic:

Education is an integral part of building a career.  There are many different avenues one can pursue when it comes to education. According to the Census Bureau, less than half of the adults over the age of 25 in America have a college degree (Census Bureau, 2023). This would mean that most will either build a career with non-traditional education resources or settle with lower paid jobs.

 

A successful career in Technology highly depends on a decent level of education. Says Sam.

 

Computer machineries have improved twice as capable each year since the 1960’s (“Moore’s Law,” 1965).  This would mean that in the 21st century humans will experience the equivalent of 20,000 years of technological progress!

 

This presentation will demonstrate a few ways Sam has expanded on his education and continuously contributes to his work. The presentation will also demonstrate means by which he has applied the education to real life problems at work.

 

Please join us for this informal workshop and peek into how a fellow student is applying their education in the real world!

 

Presenter Bio:

Sam Droddy is pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Software Development with a Specialization in Big Data and Analytics. Sam has worked in the steel industry since 2012 where he was hired as a shop floor employee. He worked as an operator on several machines until he took advantage of his company’s education reimbursement program.  He began school on the path to become an Electrical Engineer, but after securing a position in production analytics, he changed his degree. He now works in the raw material department where he refines processes to increase overall yield.  He also develops new tools for planning and analytics in his department. Notably, he developed a calculator utilizing Java and Microsoft Excel that calculates the most efficient way to slit steel coils given the necessary parameters. This tool is estimated to save his company approximately $500,000 each year in yield loss!
