The IEEE Industrial Electronics Society Rwanda Chapter — robotics, mechatronics, power electronics and industrial AI, connecting Kigali to a global community of 10,000+ engineers.
The IES is organised into regional Hubs made of local Nodes. Watch it narrow from the globe down to us — or drag, zoom and click your way in.
The IES connects 10,000+ members worldwide through regional Hubs — each built from local Nodes. Start global, then dive in.
The world's largest technical professional organisation — 400,000+ members across 160+ countries — advancing technology for the benefit of humanity.
Within IEEE, the IES gathers 10,000+ engineers and researchers applying electronics, control, instrumentation and computational intelligence to industry and manufacturing.
A local home for that mission — connecting students, young professionals and industry in Kigali to the global IES, and building the engineers behind Rwanda's industrial future.
The IES spans electronics, controls, communications, instrumentation and computational intelligence, applied to real industry. Hover to explore each domain.
Power electronics, motor drives, converters and the electronic systems that drive industrial processes, manufacturing and renewable energy infrastructure.
Members get discounted access to 30+ IES conferences a year. These are the society's marquee gatherings — and a stage Rwanda can host.
Spend a half day inside Zipline Rwanda’s autonomous delivery operations. Participants will explore drone components, learn how the aircraft are operated, watch a live flight and discover career pathways in aerospace, robotics and autonomous systems. Hosted by IEEE IES Rwanda in collaboration with IEEE AESS Rwanda and limited to 30 participants.
Students from the University of Rwanda, Carnegie Mellon University Africa and African Leadership University toured Volkswagen’s vehicle assembly facility, followed the production process from individual components to a drivable car, and connected classroom engineering with automotive careers and internship opportunities.
The official activation of Rwanda’s first IEEE geographic unit brought together engineers, students, faculty, industry and government for the launch ceremony, society workshops, humanitarian technology discussions, student leadership sessions and an evening gala.
An afternoon of industry fireside chats, lessons in entrepreneurial resilience and active networking brought engineers, founders and students together across the Hubs & Nodes community, capped by an evening networking reception.
Students, engineers and industry partners: there's a place for you in the chapter. Membership is your door into the global IEEE IES community.
