What Our Members Say

Hear directly from students whose careers and perspectives were shaped by IEEE SB SBCE.

Joining IEEE SB SBCE was the best decision of my engineering journey. The workshops and competitions gave me skills no classroom could. I landed my first internship because of the projects we built here.

Arjun K.
B.Tech CSE, Final Year · IEEE Member since 2022

The AI bootcamp by IEEE SB SBCE completely changed my view of machine learning. The mentors were world-class. The community here supports you far beyond what you’d expect from a college club.

Sneha M.
B.Tech ECE, 3rd Year · WIE Ambassador

As Branch Secretary, I grew as both a leader and an engineer. IEEE SB SBCE gave me real responsibilities — organizing 20+ events in a year. That experience is irreplaceable.
