Promoting Student Participation in the North American Power Symposium. To be Held in Waterloo, Ontario, October 23-24,2000.

在这项研究中，概述了IEEE电力工程学会(PES)电力工程教育委员会学生会议活动小组委员会继续努力通过赞助美国大学的电气工程学生参加在安大略省滑铁卢举行的2000年北美电力研讨会来促进学生对电力工程领域的兴趣的计划。这个项目的目标是为学生提供一个机会，让他们接触到电力工程领域在操作、施工和研究方面的最新发展。对于电力工程来说，这是一个特别关键的时期，因为由于传统公用事业结构的重组，该行业正在经历重大变化。对电力工程感兴趣的学生有很多不同的职业机会；该项目为学生提供了几个与电力领域其他大学的教职员工和学生互动的机会。

In this research, a plan is outlined to continue the efforts of the Student Meeting Activities Subcommittee of the Power Engineering Education Committee of the IEEE Power Engineering Society (PES) to promote student interest in the power engineering field by sponsoring electrical engineering students from US universities to attend the 2000 North American Power Symposium to be held in Waterloo, Ontario. The goal of this project is to provide an opportunity for students to be exposed to the most recent developments in operation, construction, and research in the power engineering field. This is a particularly critical time for power engineering as the industry undergoes significant change due to the restructuring of the traditional utility structure. The career opportunities for students interested in power engineering are many and varied; the program offers student several opportunities to interact with faculty and students from other universities in the power area.
