The IEEE is an organization with over 400,000 active members around the world. Its roots date back to 1884 when electricity became a major influence in society leading to today’s world of data communications and smart wireless devices. The organization is dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity and is the world’s largest technical-professional society. It serves professionals involved in all aspects of the electrical, electronic, and computing fields and related areas of science and technology. The IEEE organization is divided into ten global geographical units called “regions” that are each further sub-divided into multiple sections, chapters, affinity groups, and student branches. The IEEE Mohawk Valley Section is part of Region 1 in the Northeastern United States.
Andy Drozd, president of ANDRO stated, “This is a truly remarkable achievement that highlights Dr. Amanna’s contributions to the advancement of technology, and he now joins a select group of professionals who have demonstrated excellence in their field. Out of the 400,000 members worldwide, only 10% have achieved this level of recognition.”
ANDRO is an ardent supporter of the IEEE’s mission and vision to benefit society through science, technology, and engineering per Drozd. He added that IEEE membership offers numerous advantages for professional development and career advancement across the science and technology industries.
