Archives:The Future Awaits

Abstract

This 1988 video, part of the collection at the IEEE Archives, was done as a recruitment tool for leadership positions in IEEE student branches on college campuses. It demonstrated the advantage of active involvement in IEEE student branches for a student’s future and career by providing the student with contacts, interpersonal skills, speaking and presentation skills, and opportunities to meet and interact with faculty and other engineers outside of the classroom. It was produced with participation of the IEEE student branches at McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada; The Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, New York, U.S.A.; and the University of Rochester, Rochester, New York, U.S.A.
