The IEEE Young Engineer Conference is an annual event that allows young engineers to present their research projects to the IEEE Engineers.

Students who are passionate about electr4onics can sign up for the program. The process is

  • Goes through the design process to land on an innovative research project for the benefit of humanity
  • Work independently under the mentor’s guidance weekly
  • Participating at the annual Young Engineer Conference, presenting the product with a poster summarizing the project
  • Complete the research paper for peer review

2026 Young Engineer conference will be on Nov 2025 (Saturday and Sunday) at St Francis University.
Now opens for new projects for YE26
