Abstract

The Industry Applications Society (IAS) is the sixth largest society within the IEEE. There are more than 10000 members within the IAS. As a transnational organization, IAS is interested in advancement of the theory and practice of electrical and electronic engineering in the development, design, manufacture and application of electrical systems, apparatus, devices and controls to the processes and equipment of industry and commerce; promotion of safe, reliable and economic installations; industry leadership in energy conservation and environmental, health, and safety issues; creation of voluntary engineering standards and recommended practices; and the professional development of its membership. For sustainable development, IAS has devoted significant amount of resources and efforts for its members, especially to young professional and students. The Chapters and Membership Department (CMD) of IAS has launched many programs to stimulus the participation of young professional and students. This presentation discusses the available resources and opportunities within the IAS to enhance your research and career development.
