Abstract
The value of IEEE student membership is described in this paper. IEEE membership can help students build their personal and professional network of contacts.

This involvement in the membership presents great opportunities to gain leadership, management, and professional development experience that will be invaluable in the working world. These opportunities can also help students develop the soft interpersonal skills
