WHAT IS IEEE? Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers non-profit organization Largest institute of professionals in electrical and electronic engineers worldwide for

advisement of technology. The IEEE is a leading developer of international standards that many of today's

telecommunications, information technology and power generation products and services base on.

more than 365,000 IEEE members in over 150 countries around the world. Members include engineers, scientists and allied professionals whose technical interests

are rooted in electrical and computer sciences, engineering and related disciplines. -

ENGINEERING MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY SOCIETY, EMBS

Under the IEEE The world’s largest international biomedical engineering society. Togetherness between biomedical students internationally, professional

biomedical engineers and other related disciplines in the line of engineering medicine and biology.

Has student clubs (An EMBS Club is a group of BME students who wish to create a local EMBS organization for the benefit of its student members in coordination with BME studies.) and branches (A student branch chapter is an organization of 12 or more IEEE EMBS Students who petition IEEE to create a local IEEE EMBS organization for the benefit of its student members)
