IEEE Day is celebrated every year on October 7, with events over two weeks from 5-18 October 2025. Each year, IEEE chapters and student branches host gatherings both online and in person, turning ideas into action and building connections that reach across borders.
Why IEEE Day Matters
IEEE Day commemorates the first time engineers came together in 1884 to share technical ideas. More than a century later, it has evolved into a global tradition that unites professionals and students across disciplines and borders.
It is a chance to celebrate our collective achievements, build new networks, and inspire the next generation of leaders in computing and beyond.
IEEE Day is powered by the energy of local chapters hosting events big and small to celebrate in their own way.
From workshops and panels to social meetups and virtual celebrations, IEEE Day offers something for everyone.
