University Outreach Day
Tuesday July 17, 2012
The objective of the IEEE 802 university outreach program is to expose both
students and faculty members, of universities local to IEEE 802 plenary
meetings, to the IEEE 802 standards process so that they may:
[1] increase their understanding of the importance that standards play
within engineering technology
[2] may feel more comfortable in participating in the process if they do in
the future during their academic careers, or subsequently as practicing
engineers
[3] encourage participation in the IEEE Standards Education Committee
programs such as applying for grants for Student Application Papers Applying
Industry Standards and
[4] to create interest in including the role of standards in engineering in
the academic curriculum.
The day will start with an orientation session of about one hour. IEEE 802
University Outreach students and faculty attendees are then free to observe
sessions in progress so long as there is adequate space in the room. A list
of meetings recommended for observation by the Working Groups (a self guided
tour) will be supplied. The day will end with a closing session to provide
the opportunity for IEEE 802 University Outreach participants to ask
questions about what they have observed.
Registration Fee: $25.00 US
Registration Limit: 30 Students and or Faculty, valid student/faculty
identification required.
