Software engineers and the IEE

A discussion meeting was held on 22nd January 1986, at the request of the IEE´s Computing and Control Divisional Board, to air matters of importance arising from the Institution´s decision in 1982 to admit software engineers as full members. Speakers included members and non-members of the Institution, and particularly included speakers from the British Computer Society. About 30 people attended, of whom a substantial proportion were members of both the IEE and the BCS.
