IIEE technical seminar strengthens student professional readiness

The Institute of Integrated Electrical Engineers (IIEE) conducted the IIEE Student-Professional Technical Seminar on Oct. 25 at the AEC Little Theater, bringing together electrical engineering students and industry professionals for technical and career-oriented discussions.

The seminar was attended by 62 students from the IEEE MSEUF Student Chapter as part of a regular in-campus activity. It aimed to enhance students’ understanding of practical engineering applications while exposing them to professional standards and growth opportunities in the field.

Discussions during the seminar covered design practices, short-circuit applications, and pathways for professional development in electrical engineering. The sessions were led by professionals who shared real-world insights and experiences from both local and international engineering practice.

Participants actively engaged in the accredited learning sessions, which emphasized the application of theoretical concepts to actual engineering scenarios. Organizers said the seminar provided a valuable platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and awareness of emerging opportunities in the profession.

The activity strengthened students’ technical competence and professional readiness while fostering stronger connections within the engineering community. Organizers noted that the seminar encouraged continuous learning and the pursuit of excellence among future electrical engineers.
