IETE STUDENTS' FORUM BACKGROUND

The IETE has built up an impressive strength of student members all over the Country, at both Graduate (AM) and Diploma (SD) levels. A pass in Section A & B makes them eligible for AMIETE / DipIETE respectively. Students chapters of IETE Centres generally take care of the academic / professional needs of these members.

IETE however needs to be well known to all electronics / telecommunication / computer science / information technology students to build awareness amongst them for the mutual benefit. In India, there are nearly 600 Engineering Colleges (affiliated to Universities), over 190 universities and over 750 Polytechnics (coming under State Dtes). Most of these Institutions have Departments of Electronics /Telecom / Computer / IT / Electrical and related areas of direct  interest to IETE and prepare the students for BE/B Tech or Diploma Qualifications.

The IETE can play a useful and stimulating role by

•   improving the standard of education;
•  counselling the students in the emerging new opportunities;
•  encouraging outside-the-classroom studies / practical work / seminars etc;
•  better employment of the students on completion of their courses;
•  substantial increase of IETE membership and  its nation wide distributions.

In view of this, it is proposed to establish IETE Students Forum at the Engineering Colleges / Universities and Polytechnics in the Country, through a massive membership drive.
