What is the Nebraska Section of IEEE?
The Nebraska Section includes all IEEE members within a specific geographic area. This area is generally central and eastern Nebraska plus Pottawattamie County in Iowa. The section has about 775 members as of June, 2005. There are three active societies within the Nebraska Section. They are the Communications Society, the Computer Society, and the Power Engineering Society. There are also two student charters – one in Omaha and another in Lincoln. The Nebraska Section, its’ societies, and student chapters have regular meetings. These meetings are required in order to maintain the section, society, or chapter status and they provide their members with opportunities to network, get continuing education, and to socialize. These meetings generally consist of a dinner followed by a technical presentation constituting continuing education on an engineering subject.
