Envisioning a technical conference targeted towards undergraduate students all over the globe, last year, the MIT IEEE Student Branch inaugurated the IEEE MIT Undergraduate Research Technology Conference.

Participants can attend a rich program with renowned speakers, technical sessions, a student design competition, exhibits, networking, and social activities, presenting a great opportunity for students to interact with leading industry experts.

The conference theme is “Meet Innovative Technology”, and the six focus technical tracks are:

Machine Learning and Cloud Computing
Biological and Biomedical Engineering and Technology
Robotics and Automation Technology
Communication and Security
Wearable Technology
Innovative Technologies X-Track
