IEEE Day Celebration is 6 October 2011

6 October 2011 marks the second annual IEEE Day.  This year’s theme is Empowering Members to Create the Future, and IEEE organizational units (Regions, Sections, Chapters, Affinity Groups, Student Branches, etc.) are encouraged to participate by providing local events for their members and encouraging the use of social networking to communicate members’ technological achievements, interests, and successes. IEEE Day is on Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and LinkedIn.  The first IEEE Day was held 7 – 8 October 2010, in recognition of IEEE members — past, present, and future — on the anniversary of the first time IEEE members gathered to share their technical ideas in 1884.
