About Student Branch
IEEE's core purpose is to promote technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity. IEEE will be essential to the global technical community and to technical professionals everywhere, and be universally recognized for the contributions of technology and of technical professionals in improving global conditions. IEEE is the world’s largest technical professional society. It is designed to serve professionals involved in all aspects of the electrical, electronic and computing fields and related areas of science and technology that underlie modern civilization.
IEEE’s roots go back to 1884. There was one major established electrical industry, the telegraph, which had come to connect the world with a communications system faster than the speed of transportation. A second major area had only barely gotten underway—electric power and light, originating in Thomas Edison’s inventions.
There are more than 400,000 IEEE members in over 160 countries around the world. IEEE members are engineers, scientists and associated professionals whose technical interests are innate in science and technology related fields.
IEEE, consisting of 2,173 student branches at colleges and universities in 80 countries, has over 107,000 student members. Women in Engineering (WIE) is one of the patent entities of IEEE's Affinity Group. IEEE publishes more than 148 transactions, journals and magazines. The IEEE Xplore Digital Library has over three million documents, available for download and reference.

AICTE, SERB – DST Sponsored 2023 IEEE International Conference
IEEE 5NANO2023 is a collaborative effort – a joint Venture, sponsored by AICTE, SERB-DST, Govt. of India, technically co-sponsored by IEEE Photonics Society USA, in collaboration with MSME Technology Development Centre, Ministry of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSME), Govt. of India.
IEEE 5NANO2023 received 660 full paper submissions and 15 tutorial proposals. All the submitted papers were processed by the chairs and track chairs of the Technical Program Committee and the chairs of special sessions, while the tutorial proposals were processed by the tutorial chairs. They worked professionally, responsibly and diligently in soliciting expert international reviewers.
In addition to evaluations from reviewers, they also provided their own assessments to ensure that only high-quality papers and tutorial proposals could be accepted. Their hard work resulted in a very solid technical program. After the detailed review, 211 papers were selected for oral presentation. More than 150 participants from various institutions representing countries such as Russia, Australia, Japan, Egypt, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and the United States of America.
