Message from the Chair
Dear IEEE Education Society Members and Young Professionals,
As we enter the second half of 2024, it is a great pleasure to address you through this edition of our newsletter. The past months have been both challenging and rewarding, and I am excited to share the progress and plans of the IEEE Education Society Young Professionals Adhoc Committee.
Reflections on Our Journey

We have successfully launched several initiatives aimed at bridging the gap between academia and industry, fostering professional development, and creating a robust support network for young professionals in the field of education. We have also completed major events such as:
Testimonials
My journey with IEEE started in my BTech first year when I attended an event that made me think about what IEEE and its benefits are. Later on, with my interest and passion for exploring it, I got to know more about IEEE networking and IEEE papers, which laid the foundation for joining the IEEE. IEEE and IEEE Education Society both made me go through different phases in my life where I enhanced my communication skills, technical skills, designing skills, and networking with like-minded people, which helped me grow as a designer, and I still believe a lot more to come in the way of my IEEE journey. The IEEE Education Society YP team was another platform that allowed me to prove my skills and helped me to simulate and learn more.
My journey with IEEE has been a transformative one, taking me from the depths of introversion in my first year of college to emerging as an ambivert through my involvement in hosting events, writing, social media management, and design within the organization. I feel like an emerged person from then to now in a very positive manner which helped me grow not only personally but professionally as well. When I first stepped into college, I was the epitome of an introvert, shy and reserved. Joining IEEE seemed like a daunting task. However, my curiosity pushed me to attend one of their events, and that single decision changed my life. Initially, I was a passive observer, quietly sitting at the back during meetings. But as time passed, my fascination for technology and innovation grew, and I knew I had to become more involved. My journey toward becoming an ambivert reached its zenith when I delved into design. Creating eye-catching graphics for IEEE events and publications allowed me to blend my artistic side with my passion for technology. Today, I stand as an ambivert, someone who can comfortably navigate social situations while cherishing moments of introspection. IEEE has not only shaped my technical acumen but also my personality. It has taught me that stepping out of one's comfort zone can lead to remarkable personal growth. My journey with IEEE continues to be an inspiring odyssey, one that I wouldn't trade for anything.
As a content team lead for the IEEE Education Society Young Professional Adhoc Committee, I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most dedicated and talented volunteers in the engineering community. These young professionals are passionate about education and are committed to making a difference in the world. One of the things I admire most about our volunteers is their willingness to go the extra mile. They are always willing to lend a helping hand, whether it's working on a new project, reviewing content, or providing feedback. They are also incredibly creative and innovative, and they are always coming up with new ways to engage and inspire young people. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work with these amazing volunteers. They make the IEEE Education Society Young Professional Adhoc Committee a great place to be, and they are making a real difference in the lives of young people around the world.
My journey as an IEEE committee member began during my second year of undergraduate studies. It has been a remarkable evolution, filled with dedication, passion, and continuous growth. I initially entered the IEEE community with enthusiasm and a desire to make a difference, and over the years, I've had the privilege of ascending to a position of leadership and influence within this incredible organization. This transformation truly showcases the power of commitment, collaboration, and the unwavering pursuit of IEEE's mission to advance technology for the benefit of humanity. Throughout these years, I've taken on various roles within IEEE, starting as a committee member and gradually getting involved in organizing workshops and conferences. One of the highlights of my journey was being chosen as the IEEEXtreme Programming Competition Ambassador 16.0. I'm currently volunteering at the IEEE EduSoc YP Adhoc Committee. My journey within IEEE has been nothing short of transformative, and I'm truly grateful for the experiences, the knowledge, and the amazing people I've had the privilege to work with. It's a testament to the power of dedication, passion, and the unwavering commitment to making a positive impact on our world through technology. I look forward to continuing this incredible journey with IEEE and contributing to the advancement of technology for the betterment of humanity.
IEEE has given my career a new gateway to furnish my academic and professional lives. For the betterment of my character and skills, the YP Ad-hoc Committee has served as a bridge and helped me discover many skills within myself. The tasks assigned to me have been great tools to polish my talents even better. The guidance of my seniors has helped me see IEEE in a new light. In the past few months, I got to know even better about how the organization works. In the future, I anticipate working with even more people with the same determination as me.
Experience is the child of thought, and thought is the child of action. The journey of being a part of IEEE volunteer has been a fascinating opportunity to intensify my abilities and skills, contemplate the real-world circumstances and strive to produce a better version of myself. Responsibilities and management were as important as learning and interweaving with the IEEE family. I am glad that this platform has brought an ocean of chances to strengthen my technical aspects, volunteer and team up with the student branches and sections, conduct various events and workshops and last but not the least, the cherished moments with such a supportive and enthusiastic team. Four long years of this pleasing phase, where I could serve the Student branch and Section requirements besides building my personality to justify various opportunities in the future with the knowledge imparted by the IEEE atmosphere. Exploration and curiosity are the pillars to find passion in our work, and IEEE has always proven to be the best place to acquire the same. I express heartfelt gratitude to all the IEEE fellow members and volunteers from other sections who have always been those passionate personalities who helped me showcase my skills and prove myself in every step throughout this wonderful journey.
The Ad-hoc Committee helped me meet many people with the same dreams as mine. I get to connect with a lot of industrial experts and academicians in this wonderful journey. The way my seniors guided me and showed me a clear path of how to get things done is very helpful for me. Even though the path has been a little bumpy and indeed there are a few falls, by the end of the day I get to experience the fruit of hard work. I have also realized that the efforts that we put in IEEE activities will never go to waste and these experiences have also helped me to develop my people skills and teamwork. The roles and responsibilities that I personally took up being a part of the Ad-hoc Committee have helped me gain good skills that would help my career and I'm thankful for all of this.
I feel delighted to share my journey with IEEE, it began as a Vice-Chair from IEEE GCET PES SBC in the year 2021 by volunteering and organizing events at our college where I had an opportunity to improve time management skills with academics. I had the privilege to volunteer for Student Network Team, IEEE Hyderabad Section where it had given me an opportunity to serve as an ambassador for AISYWLC-22. I think IEEE is a great platform to gain knowledge in technical fields, volunteer opportunities, networking, and many other things. Collaborating with the team is something I truly enjoy. I adore volunteering for IEEE because it challenges me to venture outside of my comfort zone and develop my professional career. As a Member of IEEE Education Society YP Adhoc Committee I got to learn how to organize the events, communicate through email, teamwork, and coordination. I feel enthusiastic to work with such a team where they rise by lifting others.
