IEEE / Robotics & Automation Society: Student Chapter

Murray State University has a local chapter of the IEEE RAS.

"RAS strives to advance innovation, education, and fundamental and applied research in robotics and automation. Robotics focuses on systems incorporating sensors and actuators that operate autonomously or semi-autonomously in cooperation with humans. Robotics research emphasizes intelligence and adaptability to cope with unstructured environments. Automation research emphasizes efficiency, productivity, quality, and reliability, focusing on systems that operate autonomously, often in structured environments over extended periods, and on the explicit structuring of such environments." (Source: http://www.ieee-ras.org/about-ras. 2-14-2014)



"At Murray State University, the student branch consists of any and all STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) majors. We boast more than 20 active members yearly since our founding in 2011. Murray State's branch holds general meetings monthly and technical speakers from industry such as Dynetics and GE once a semester. We also co-host trips with classes to industry facilities such as TVA and GE Aviation. IEEE also enjoys hosting Engineers' Day (E-Day) every February on campus. It is a day for K-12 students to learn about engineering using fun, creative games. This year's E-Day is a collaboration between multiple departments and organizations in the STEM fields and promises to be the largest one to date! IEEE also competes at a regional IEEE hardware competition yearly." (Source: http://msuieee.wix.com/msuieee#!about/cipy)
