Young Professionals Events at ICOPS 2026
At ICOPS, we actively support the IEEE Young Professionals (YP) program, which is designed to meet the needs of individuals in the early stages of their careers. IEEE Young Professionals are members and volunteers who have graduated within the last 15 years. This global community is focused on networking, engagement, and expanding connections both within and outside their technical fields.
In recent years, ICOPS has hosted seminars, workshops, special poster sessions, and panels covering topics such as employment, career development, and funding opportunities. These events have successfully facilitated direct interactions between young professionals and senior colleagues, as well as potential employers, helping participants launch careers in academia, government labs, or industry.
With members ranging from recent graduates to seasoned professionals and entrepreneurs, IEEE Young Professionals offer a diverse and valuable network for career growth.
