Computer Society Chapter Home Page

Welcome to the Southeastern Michigan Chapter of the IEEE Computer Society Chapter. We are a local chapter of the IEEE Computer Society. The Society strives to advance the theory, practice, and application of computer and information processing science and technology and maintains a high professional standing among its members. The Society promotes cooperation and exchange of technical information among its members and to this end holds meetings for the presentation and discussion of technical papers, publishes technical journals, and through its organization and other appropriate means provides for the needs of its members. We host technical meetings of interest to local management and technical professionals. This is one of several dozen IEEE societies.

Upcoming event: Annual Embedded Systems Workshop jointly with GL-SPIN October, 2009.

We are a local IEEE Technical Society Chapter. We are part of the local Southeastern Michigan Section. The Section is a geographic entity, not a technical entity. Our Chapter and Section reside in the same Southeastern Michigan geographic area. See the further description on our About Us page.

IEEE has many, many, member benefits. See the IEEE web page and our membership page.

Eligible professionals may join IEEE as full members. You don't need to be a manager to join. Others may join as associate members. Professionals that want to only join the Computer Society may join as affiliate members (but understand that you don't get the benefits of being an IEEE member). Eligible undergraduate students may join as student members. Graduate students join as graduate student members. See IEEE membership.

As a member of IEEE, you are eligible for especially negotiated rates on personal insurance, insurance for your business, credit cards and financial services, as well as on products and services for your home and office through the Financial Advantage Program. Availability of programs varies by Region and State. Active IEEE membership is a requirement for participation.

Your investment in your career and your IEEE membership can be greatly increased by volunteering. You will gain personal as well as professional rewards. See our information on volunteering and get involved.
