The Institute of Radio Engineers

1912Radio telegraph operators’communications with thesinking Titanic demonstratedthe power of radio

AIEE + IRE = IEEEThe idea that there should be one organization for all electrical engineers was an old one, and became more powerful as the profession expanded beyond its separate roots in power and radio. In 1962, the boards and memberships of the two institutes agreed to merge. On January 1, 1963, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers was born with 150,000 members.
