The objective of the IEEE 802 ® University Outreach Program is to expose both students and faculty

members, of universities local to IEEE 802 plenary meetings, to the IEEE 802 standards process so

that they may:

[1] Increase their understanding of the importance that standards play within engineering technology.

[2] Feel more comfortable participating in the standards process in future academic careers, or as

practicing engineers.

[3] Participate in the IEEE Standards Education Committee programs such as applying for grants for

Student Application Papers Applying Industry Standards.

[4] Cultivate an interest in including the role of standards in engineering in the academic curriculum.

The day will start with an orientation session of about one hour long. IEEE 802 University Outreach

students and faculty attendees are then free to observe sessions in progress so long as there is

adequate space in the room. A list of meetings recommended for observation by the Working Groups (a

self guided tour) will be supplied. The day will end with a closing session to provide the opportunity for

IEEE 802 University Outreach participants to ask questions about what they have observed.
