How it all started…Tremendous growth in electrical technology in late 19th century, EE became a profession
Plans began for a milestone international Electrical Exhibition at Franklin Institute in Philadelphia
This prompted 25 of America's prominent electrical engineers to form a society to promote their field
The American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE) founded on 13 May, 1884
Thomas A. EdisonAlexander Graham Bell
The beginnings of the IEEE…Marconi’s broadcast of morse code across the Atlantic in 1901 captivated the world
Many young engineers attracted to radio
April 14, 1912, one of history’s worst disasters occurred but radio saved 700 lives
Radio technology boom resulted in a new society in 1912, the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE)
Overlap and duplication of efforts led to a merger plan
AIEE and IRE merged in 1965 to form IEEE
G. Marconi
