IEEE NSU PES Student Branch Chapter

What IEEE NSU PES Student Branch Chapter does

IEEE NSU Power and Energy Society Student Branch Chapter is a non-profit student-led technical society operating under the global IEEE umbrella at North South University in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Founded in the 2017-2019 period as a sub-unit of the IEEE NSU Student Branch, the chapter serves undergraduate and graduate engineering students studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, and related disciplines. Its mission is to advance knowledge and professional development in power and energy engineering through seminars, workshops, industrial tours, and competitions.

The chapter delivers programs across power systems, renewable energy, SCADA, embedded systems, IoT, PCB design, MATLAB/Simulink, HOMER Pro, and introductory AI/ML topics. Activities are hosted at North South University venues and through virtual webinars, with industrial cohorts delivered at partner companies including Ulterior Engineering Intl. and Neural Semiconductor. The chapter operates a multi-team structure covering events, content, media, PR, finance, and logistics, and is guided by a faculty advisor from the university's ECE department.

Revenue is derived primarily from modest student membership dues (approximately US$1 per year for IEEE PES student membership), small workshop and event registration fees in Bangladeshi Taka (BDT 155-175 per attendee), and periodic non-dilutive grants from IEEE PES Member-Driven Initiatives and other IEEE funding programs. The chapter has earned consecutive IEEE PES High Performing Student Branch Chapter recognition from 2021 through 2024, achieved a top-5 global ranking within IEEE Region 10, and launched PowerExpress 2.0 in 2025 as the first IEEE PES MDI program in Bangladesh.
