Professional Organizations
American Automatic Control Council (AACC)
The American Automatic Control Council is an association of the control systems divisions of eight member societies: American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics; American Institute of Chemical Engineer; Association of Iron and Steel Engineers; American Society of Civil Engineers; American Society of Mechanical Engineers; Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Society; and the Society for Computer Simulation.
American Public Power Association (APPA)
The American Public Power Association (APPA) is the service organization for the nation's more than 2,000 community-owned electric utilities that serve more than 45 million Americans.
Association for Systems Management (ASM)
On January 16th,1993, the Brigham Young University Student Chapter of the Association for Systems Management was established. It is primarily composed of Information Systems students within the Marriott School of Management; however, ASM welcomes students from all majors including computer science and information technology.
Association of Energy Engineers (AEE)
The Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) is a nonprofit professional society of 9,500 members in 73 countries. The mission of AEE is “to promote the scientific and educational interests of those engaged in the energy industry and to foster action for Sustainable Development.”
Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)
The Electric Power Research Institute, Inc. (EPRI) conducts research and development for the global electricity sector. An independent, nonprofit organization, EPRI brings together experts from academia and industry as well as its own scientists and engineers to help address challenges in electricity generation, delivery and use, including health, safety and the environment. EPRI also provides technology, policy and economic analyses to drive long-range research and development planning and supports research in emerging technologies.
Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF)
From the Internet to the iPod, technologies are transforming our society and empowering us as speakers, citizens, creators and consumers. When our freedoms in the networked world come under attack, the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is the first line of defense. EFF broke new ground when it was founded in 1990 — well before the Internet was on most people's radar — and continues to confront cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation and consumer rights today. From the beginning, EFF has championed the public interest in every critical battle affecting digital rights.
IEEE Computer Society
With nearly 85,000 members, the IEEE Computer Society is the world’s leading organization of computing professionals. The largest of the 39 societies of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the CS is dedicated to advancing the theory and application of computer and information-processing technology.
IEEE Consumer Electronics Society (CE)
The Consumer Electronics Society (CE Society) is an organization within the IEEE that strives for the advancement of the theory and practice of electronic engineering and of the allied arts and sciences with respect to the field of consumer electronics and the maintenance of a high professional standing among its members which now number over 5,000. The society has long been the premier technical association in the consumer electronics industry. The Consumer Electronics Society is truly international. Its publications and presentations are authored by researchers from countries throughout the world. Activities of the CE Society are directed by the society's administrative committee (AdCom) whose members represent the technical and commercial breadth of the organization.
IEEE Electromagnetic Compatibility Society (ECS)
The IEEE EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) Society’s field of interest is on engineering related to the electromagnetic environmental effects of systems to be compatible with themselves and their intended operating environment. These areas include: standards, measurement techniques and test procedures, instrumentation, equipment and systems characteristics, interference control techniques and components, education, computational analysis and spectrum management along with scientific, technical, industrial, professional or other activities that contribute to this field.
IEEE Power & Energy Society (PES)
The IEEE Power & Energy Society is a worldwide, nonprofit association of more than 21,000 individuals engaged in electric power engineering. PES members are involved in the planning, research, development, construction, installation and operation of equipment and systems for the safe, reliable and economic generation, transmission, distribution, measurement and control of electric energy. The Power & Energy Society provides the world's largest forum for sharing the latest in technological developments in the electric power industry for developing standards that guide the development and construction of equipment and systems and for educating members of the industry and the general public. Members of the Power & Energy Society are leaders in this field and they — and their employers — derive substantial benefits from involvement with this unique and outstanding association.
With a history spanning 125 years, IEEE continues to serve as an authoritative resource for individuals in the tech sectors of government, industry and academia worldwide.
Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET)
The Institution of Engineering and Technology is one of the world’s leading professional societies for the engineering and technology community. The IET has more than 150,000 members in 127 countries and offices in Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific. The IET provides a global knowledge network to facilitate the exchange of ideas and promote the positive role of science, engineering and technology in the world.
Insulated Cable Engineers Association, Inc. (ICEA)
The Insulated Cable Engineers Association is a professional organization dedicated to developing cable standards for the electric power, control and telecommunications industries. Since 1925, the objective has been to ensure safe, economical and efficient cable systems utilizing proven state-of-the-art materials and concepts. Now with the proliferation of new materials and cable designs, this mission has gained in importance. ICEA documents are of interest to industry participants worldwide, i.e. cable manufacturers, architects and engineers, utility and manufacturing plant personnel, telecommunication engineers, consultants and OEMs.
National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE)
In 1934, a group of professional engineers met in New York City to establish an organization dedicated to the nontechnical concerns of licensed professional engineers. The National Society of Professional Engineers stands today as the only national organization committed to addressing the professional concerns of licensed PEs across all disciplines.
