Its been an year now since i wrote my last post discussing recession and its effects. I talked about how innovation is influenced by recession in my previous post. In todays post I will talk about the Int'l Society of Automation student chapter we currently started at OSU, stillwater.
Int'l Society of Automation student chapter has currently 25 student members with 4 interim officers and one faculty advisor. The constitution of the chapter describes the purpose as and i quote
The objectives of the Section are to advance and to reinforce the arts and sciences related to the theory, design, manufacture, and use of instrumentation, computers, and systems for measurement and control in the various sciences and technologies for the benefit of mankind and to advance knowledge of career opportunities in the field of instrumentation. More specifically: to promote automation within OSU as a career; to avail a cross disciplinary experience for members; to understand the breadth of automation, and to gather information for members to make rational educational choices to prepare for the careers in automation.The chapter already has many events in line including design contests, guest speakers, movies, career workshops and expo. The elections for the officer positions is to be held in November first week.
Its an exciting new venture and I am looking forward towards more fun and knowledge sharing.
