ISBIR Portal Alpha Version
3-year 2007-09, ISBIR Program
combine all industry related activities of student branches
establish a platform where IEEE volunteers from all over the
world can share their best practice and experience
basic goal: activate and encourage Student Branches
forming strong and permanent relations with industry
SBs play an important role by:

arranging professional activities and meetings with executives

establishing their internal formations about industry relations

bringing several opportunities to IEEE members.

Some possible activities and projects your student branch can implement as part of
ISBIR Program can be enumerated as:

Informative Meetings or Presentations for the Awareness of IEEE and ISBIR
Extensive Organizations about Industry
Professional and Technical Project Groups
Project Implementation Center or Laboratories
Cooperation with Alumni and Related Organizations
Technical Trips to Factories or Industry Zones
Technical Seminars or Trainings
Project or Business Idea Contests
Fair and Conference Participations
Providing Career and Internship Opportunities for Students
Individual Meetings with Industry Representatives
Sponsorship Agreements with Companies
Research about the Local Characteristics of Industry

As you can see, extending the list of activities is only limited(!) by the creativity of IEEE volunteers !
Student branches can immediately participate in ISBIR
Program by submitting the application forms and begin
to implement industry-related activities in their local
areas. ISBIR Guide and ISBIR Program Presentation will
help IEEE volunteers in establishing permanent relations
with industrial companies and retrieving feedback from
them about their demands from IEEE and your student
branch using ISBIR Survey.
Once your branch is involved in ISBIR Program, we
are always eager to learn about your activities so you
can inform us about your recent activities in order to
"benefit" from the subprograms of ISBIR Program using
the ISBIR Action Submission Form
Also, you are always welcome to contact us at
[email protected] for your feedbacks and questions.
