How it all started…Tremendous growth in electrical technology in late 19th century, EE became a profession

Plans began for a milestone international Electrical Exhibition at Franklin Institute in Philadelphia

This prompted 25 of America's prominent electrical engineers to form a society to promote their field

The American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE) founded on 13 May, 1884

Thomas A. EdisonAlexander Graham Bell

The beginnings of the IEEE…Marconi’s broadcast of morse code across the Atlantic in 1901 captivated the world

Many young engineers attracted to radio

April 14, 1912, one of history’s worst disasters occurred but radio saved 700 lives

Radio technology boom resulted in a new society in 1912, the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE)

Overlap and duplication of efforts led to a merger plan

AIEE and IRE merged in 1965 to form IEEE
