To form a new IEEE Society Chapter, the Chapter Organizer must gather 12 or more signatures from IEEE Members on a Society Chapter petition. Signers must be members of the Society, and higher grade members (no students, nor affiliates). Approval is required from the Section and Society that will be represented. In many cases, a Chapter may already exist which can be expanded to include members of another Technical Society or in an adjoining Section. The Society Chapter petition and details about new Chapter formation can be found here.
IEEE members can add Society membership using your myIEEE portal. To learn more about individual Societies, visit the IEEE Society Memberships homepage.
