About the Associate Member

We are the largest international Insitute for
ElectronicsInformationCommunicationEngineering Science fields in Japan.

The IEICE was founded in 1911 as a former organization of the second study group of the second department of the Ministry of Communications electric laboratory. It was officially established in May 1917 as the "Telegraph and Telephone Society" and celebrated its 100th anniversary in May 2017. The Institute aims to contribute to the building of a healthy communication society and the preservation and development of a rich global environment by promoting academic achievement, industrial growth, and the enhancement of human resources as an international society in the field of electronics, information, and communications, and related fields. Our goal is to continue to develop new fields and contribute to the growth of human resources to create paradigm shifts by combining cross-cutting elements from several technical fields and establishing new technical fields from these elements.

A place where people and technology meet-A world tide is born-

The IEICE technical committees are an unique activity of the IEICE. Under five societies and one group, many researchers gather in each specialized field, and more than 500 technical committees are held annually and the number of presentations reaches 10,000. Active discussions are held on the theme of leading edge technology to encourage the emergence of new research.
