Committees: Educational Committee Professional Development Committee Resource Development Committee Membership Development Committee Awards Committee Student Activities Committee News Letter/SYNAPSE Editors Web Master
IEEE Hyderabad Section has 6 IEEE Fellows and more than 100 Senior Members.
IEEE Hyderabad Section conducts monthly (frequent) meetings to oversee various activities.
The section maintains its own website (http://www.ieeehyd.org) announcing its activities and seeking inputs from members.
Mailing lists are set-up to reach members with the programs conducted and membership drive as needed.
Active Students Members (Volunteers) are invited to SEC meetings thus enthusing importance of professional activities and IEEE.
IEEE Hyderabad Section works closely with other professional bodies such as IE (I), IETE, CSI.
IEEE Hyderabad Section supports CSI’s Lean Six Sigma programs. A good discount for IEEE members has been worked out.
Section conducts national level Project Contest for undergraduate, graduate students annually.
Section organizes Faraday Memorial Lecture (FML) annually by eminent speakers.
The Section has established a process of collecting feedback and recommendations to follow. Section feedback is used to identify member interests, program ratings, plan future programs, identify volunteers, and follow up with potential non-members to turn them into members.
Measurement of feedback: on an average all the programs "met expectations" or "exceeded expectations"
IEEE Hyderabad Section has been actively participating in IEEE Exhibits @ BM Birla Science Centre, group of interactive exhibits in science and engineering created by the IEEE for pre-college students, and presented in partnership with BM Birla Science Centre. IEEE President and CEO Dr. Moshe Kam in Hyderabad on January 23rd, 2011 inaugurated "IEEE Exhibits at Birla Science Centre".

From the blog ((http://moshekam.org/) of Prof Moshe Kam – IEEE President:
“… What we have witnessed during the last year in Hyderabad is IEEE at its best. Local volunteers supported by IEEE funding and local industry

support, working with the community and civic institutions to improve technical literacy among young students and the public. Just about a year ago, the area where the shiny exhibits are operating now was a rather unused storage space not frequented by visitors. Every day now it hosts hundreds of parents with their children and teachers with their students. It feels like a small miracle…” – Prof. Moshe Kam, IEEE President, 2011

C.2 Special Events IEEE Hyderabad Section celebrated IEEE 125 Years IEEE Hyderabad Section celebrated IEEE Day on 7th October, 2010
C.3 Problems (Challenges) to be anticipated Challenges anticipated: Sections receive foreign money as Section Rebates,
Grants, and funds for technical activities. All such money should be accounted within Income Tax and Statutory regulations of the country. It needs competent Audiors opinions and practices. This challenge may be encountered by all most all sections. Needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
C.4 Best Practices of your section (which you would like share with other sections for the benefits of members)
Collecting feedback at the end of every program Use if E-Mail LIST SERVERS of IEEE for frequent communication with the
members Use of social media such as Twitter and Linkedin Active Students Members (Volunteers) are invited to SEC meetings thus
enthusing importance of professional activities and IEEE. IEEE Hyderabad Section introduced Student Representative (SSR) beginning from 2010
IEEE Hyderabad Section formed a committee (Resource Development Committee, RDC) maintaining a database of volunteers who are interested in delivering technical lectures, tutorials. It helped a lot to quickly identify speakers for events.
