Conference: Promoting Student Participation in the IEEE Power Engineering Society. To be held in Seattle, Washington, July 16-20, 2000

在这个项目中，一个计划，以继续努力的学生会议活动小组委员会的电力工程教育委员会的IEEE电力工程学会（PES），以促进学生的兴趣，在电力工程领域赞助电气工程专业的学生从美国大学参加IEEE PES年度夏季会议将在西雅图，华盛顿。 该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的设计，操作，施工和研究的最新发展。 对于电力工程来说，这是一个特别关键的时刻，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革。 对电力工程感兴趣的学生的就业机会是多种多样的;该计划为学生提供了几个机会，与来自公用事业，供应商，制造商和咨询公司的执业工程师进行互动。

In this project, 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 IEEE PES annual Summer Meeting to be held in Seattle, Washington. The goal of this project is to provide an opportunity for students to be exposed to the most recent developments in design, 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 practicing engineers from utilities, vendors, manufacturers, and consulting firms.
