Why should I go to London to make a presentation on something I invited in the United States?
Thomas Edison
American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE)– founded 1884, New York City– founders included some most prominent inventors and
innovators in the then new field of electrical engineering.– first meeting was held during the 1884 International
Electrical Exhibition, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (October 7-8, at the Franklin Institute).
AIEE Purpose
"to promote the Arts and Sciences connected with the production and utilization of electricity and the welfare of those employed in these Industries: by means of social intercourse, the reading and discussion of professional papers and the circulation by means of publication among members and associates of information thus obtained."
AIEE Presidents
Norvin GreenPresident of the Western Union Telegraph Company
Alexander Graham BellInventor!
• AIEE (1884)– “sections” formed in Chicago, Philadelphia,
etc. after 1900.– wired telegraph communications (telegraphy)– wired telephone communications (telephony)– electric power (generation and distribution)– electric lighting
• AIEE (1884)– “sections” formed in Chicago, Philadelphia,
etc. after 1900.– wired telegraph communications (telegraphy)– wired telephone communications (telephony)– electric power (generation and distribution)– electric lighting
• New trends in electrical engineering– wireless telegraph– radio– electronics
Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE)– founded 1912, New York City– growing professional community of developers and
operators of radio systems – standards! FCC, NTSC– more of an international focus
Chief Engineer Wireless Company of America
First President
Robert H. Marriott
World War II
Electronic “computers” were invented to “compute” artillery tables
radio detection and ranging
was developed to detect approaching enemy aircraft
by the end of the War, radar was mounted on aircraft
guidance and control systems
• AIEE (1884)– 1962 membership = 57,000
• Institute of Radio Engineers (1912)– 1962 membership = 96,500

IEEE
• Sections– basic geographic unit (311)– meetings, activities, tours, refresher courses
• Technical Societies– 39 technical societies– conferences, technical publications– 1,384 society chapters (within sections)
• Student Branches– university activities
Your IEEE
• This is your professional society– serve the needs of EE/CpE’s
• Member benefits– Knowledge
• Stay current with the fast changing world of technology
– Community• belong to a network of 365,000 members in 150 countries.
– Profession• empowering members to build their careers
IEEE Service
• Volunteer Organization– All officers are elected from the membership
and serve.– Benefits to members are result of volunteer
contributions.– IEEE focuses on benefits members receive– IEEE members also receive benefits by
serving
