Core offering

IEIE (대한전자공학회, Institute of Electronics and Information Engineers) is a Korean professional academic society that delivers peer-reviewed academic journals (JSTS, IEIE SPC, and a Korean-language journal), major annual conferences (Summer and Autumn Comprehensive Academic Conferences plus the IICC jointly held with KIEE), specialized technical workshops across semiconductors, AI, communications, and embedded systems, award programs (Haedong Award series and the IEIE-IEEE Joint Award), and tiered individual, corporate, and special membership services to the electronics and information engineering research community.

Product overview

IEIE (Institute of Electronics and Information Engineers / 대한전자공학회) operates as a professional academic society rather than a commercial product company. Its core offerings include three academic journals (IEIE Transactions on Electronics as KCI-registered Korean journal, JSTS and IEIE SPC as SCIE/SCOPUS/KCI-indexed international journals), major annual conferences (Summer and Fall conferences with over 1,000 presentations, IICC jointly with KIEE), award programs (Haedong Award series, IEIE-IEEE Joint Award), and specialized technical workshops on semiconductor and AI topics. The society also provides membership services, paper submission systems, and graduate student support programs like WISET. The organization maintains conference management platforms at conf.theieie.org and ics.theieie.org for registration, paper submission, and program management.

Direct peers

• IET (Institution of Engineering and Technology): IET is a UK-headquartered international professional society for engineering and technology with a multi-disciplinary portfolio of journals, conferences, and memberships. It is a directly comparable global peer serving overlapping academic and industrial members in electronics and information engineering.
• KICS (Korean Institute of Communications and Information Sciences): KICS is a Korean academic society focused on communications and information sciences that overlaps with IEIE's Communications Society. It competes for Korean telecom/ICT research publications, conferences, and corporate sponsorship, particularly from SK Telecom, KT, and similar Korean carriers that are also IEIE Gold members.
• IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers): IEEE is the largest global professional society for electrical, electronics, and computer engineering, operating as IEIE's explicit international counterpart and joint-award partner since 2006. It runs the largest portfolio of SCIE-indexed engineering journals and flagship international conferences that IEIE's domestic conferences compete with for Korean authors and attendees.
• KIEE (Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers): Korean Institute of Electrical Engineers is the closest domestic peer to IEIE, jointly organizing the IICC conference series. It serves overlapping Korean academic and industrial members in adjacent electrical engineering disciplines, making it IEIE's principal domestic collaborator and competitor for Korean researcher engagement.

Broad incumbents

• ACM (Association for Computing Machinery): ACM is a global professional society for computing with a large indexed journal/conference portfolio and membership base. It is a broad incumbent peer that overlaps with IEIE's Computer Society and AI Signal Processing Society, competing for Korean CS/AI research output and conference submissions.
• AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science): AAAS is a broad scientific professional society operating Science magazine and the SCIE-indexed Science journal. While much broader than IEIE, it serves as a useful structural reference for nonprofit academic society operations at global scale, including membership, conferences, and advocacy.

Emerging players

• Optica (formerly OSA, Optical Society): Optica is a global scientific society for optics and photonics with indexed journals, conferences, and corporate membership programs. It is an emerging-player peer that intersects with IEIE's semiconductor and imaging systems research areas (e.g., JSTS scope), particularly as Korea invests in photonic and imaging R&D.
• APSIPA (Asia-Pacific Signal and Information Processing Association): APSIPA is the Asia-Pacific signal and information processing association that signed an MOU with IEIE in 2025-07-17. It is a direct peer in signal processing and AI sub-domains and a co-organization partner for joint academic activities and researcher exchange.

Regional players

• CIE (Chinese Institute of Electronics): CIE is the national professional society for electronics engineering in China, with a comparable multi-society structure and journal portfolio. It is a regional peer operating in a different geography but addressing the same academic and industrial constituencies, and is a potential counterpart for cross-border collaboration.
• IEICE (Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, Japan): IEICE is Japan's counterpart to IEIE, also structured around multiple technical societies and indexed journals in electronics, information, and communications. It serves as a directly comparable regional peer, primarily competing for East Asian engineering research attention rather than direct Korean market share.
