Welcome to the Sri Lanka branch of the IEE
The branch xxxwebsite has been set up to serve local members of the Institution of Electrical Engineers and to coordinate local activities. The branch's activities include meetings for paper presentations by members, industrial visits, annual sessions and an annual younger members session.
The origins of IEE Sri Lanka, dates back to January 1935 when a group, led by Major C.H.Brazel (as the first Chairman) formed the Ceylon Local Centre of the Institution of Electrical Engineers with the formulation of the Bye-laws.
The IEE Sri Lanka collaborates with the Institution of Engineers Sri Lanka (IESL), the Computer Society of Sri Lanka (CSSL), the Institute of Physics Sri Lanka (IPSL) and the Engineering Faculties of the Universities in Sri Lanka in many activities in the electrical engineering and related fields.
Since the beginning, the branch has been very active, even having formed, in 1987, one of the first Younger Members Sections (YMS) of The IEE outside the United Kingdom, to encourage the younger members to take an active part in their affairs and in 1988 its frequently updated homepage (originally hosted by the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka).
The IEE Sri Lanka now not only organises programmes for engineers in industry, and students in engineering, but also annually conducts a popularisation workshop for school children and a programme for Senior Members.
