The 2011 IEEE-USA Annual Meeting provides an unparalleled training opportunity for IEEE’s U.S. volunteers and members. Industry leaders will explore one of the most important engineering challenges facing the world:  engineering automobiles and transportation systems to make better use of available energy resources and to implement innovative energy solutions.

Attendees will be briefed on pressing social, economic and political issues surrounding transportation and energy, as well as training in how to take outreach programs and ideas home.

In addition to transportation and energy topics, the program will provide sessions on basic
volunteer training, interactive workshops honing leadership skills, exhibits on the latest IEEE
products and services, opportunities for networking and exchange of best practices, and the
IEEE-USA awards ceremony recognizing the best of our U.S. engineers.
