“It is not beyond our power to create a world in which all children have access to a good education.” ~ Nelson Mandela
Aligning with the IEEE Education Week Global Initiative, IEEE Education Week Sri Lanka 2023 was organized as a two-day celebration, highlighting the educational opportunities, programs and resources provided by IEEE. IEEE Education Week Sri Lanka 2023 was developed in collaboration with IEEE SLInspire, IEEE Techverse Sri Lanka, IEEE SL Students Activities Committee, IEEE Young Professionals Sri Lanka, IEEE WIE Sri Lanka Section, IEEE SL Section SIGHT and IEEE Computer Society Sri Lanka Chapter. Considering that the 2nd to 8th of April 2023 was recognized as the IEEE Education Week globally for this year, the Sri Lankan counterpart of the global phenomenon was conducted on 3rd and 4th of April 2023 at TRACE Expert City, Sri Lanka.
The two-day event harnessed an unexpected amount of participation including Students, Professionals, Educators, and Industry Experts for its exceptional line-up of programs including interactive Techtalks, Skill Development workshops, IEEE Awareness and Industry visits. Both days featured the STEM Expo, an exhibition offering attendees an opportunity to gain practical experience in their areas of interest. The stalls at STEM Expo covered various aspects such as Technology, Higher Education, School/University projects and IEEE Awareness.
