Yesterday, Microsoft Corp. and IEEE announced a collaboration to empower students to reach their professional aspirations. The goal of the Microsoft-IEEE collaboration is to increase the number of students engaged in technical pursuits with the long-term benefit of strengthening business and society through the use of technology.
The collaboration between the two organizations will equip IEEE members with access to Microsoft student programs and technology and expose the benefits of IEEE membership more broadly to science, technology and engineering students who are currently using Microsoft software and solutions.
“In addition, the participation of IEEE Fellows and other high-profile members in the Imagine Cup program supports our initiatives to highlight the contributions engineers and other technology professionals make to society worldwide,” Jankowski said.
In addition, the two organizations will identify opportunities to increase awareness of important technology-related issues that affect the growth of the IT industry.
