IEEE Bombay Section STEM Group

Mission:
The IEEE Bombay Local Group on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is established to promote STEM education and careers among students and professionals in the Bombay region. The Local Group will provide a forum for members to discuss advances in STEM fields, organize educational activities, and support the development of STEM talent. It will operate in cooperation with the Bombay Section to foster interdisciplinary knowledge, skills, and opportunities related to science, technology, engineering, and math. The Local Group aims to attract STEM students and educators to IEEE membership. It will collaborate with local academic institutions and industry partners to enhance STEM teaching and learning in Bombay. Through talks, workshops, projects and competitions, the Group will showcase real-world applications of STEM and empower members with technical and soft skills. It will facilitate mentorship programs and career guidance activities. The Local Group will abide by IEEE rules and work transparently under the Bombay Section. It aims to boost STEM literacy, reduce skill gaps, and prepare youth for 21st century jobs - thereby advancing IEEE's mission of benefiting humanity through STEM fields.
