The event aimed to bring IEEE members and students together to celebrate IEEE's global community\, strengthen conne ctions between Student Branches\, and encourage students to discover the o pportunities offered by IEEE.\n\nThe celebration combined interactive acti vities\, physical team games\, friendly competitions\, one-on-one mentorin g sessions\, networking\, and discussions about IEEE initiatives and techn ical opportunities.\n\nObjectives\n\n-\nCelebrate IEEE Day and promote IEE E values and community spirit.\n\n-\nStrengthen collaboration between the three participating Student Branches.\n\n-\nEncourage interaction between students from different institutions through mixed teams.\n\n-\nIntroduce participants to IEEE activities\, membership opportunities\, and technical competitions.\n\n-\nProvide personalized guidance through one-on-one ment oring sessions.\n\n-\nPromote teamwork\, communication\, leadership\, and networking.\n\nProgram and Activities\n\nThe event began with a welcome an d opening session in the amphitheater\, introducing the purpose of IEEE Da y and the participating Student Branches.\n\nParticipants then took part i n mixed-team activities designed to encourage collaboration and friendly c ompetition. The program included physical games\, interactive challenges\, and a Kahoot quiz.\n\nOne-on-one mentoring sessions were also organized\, giving participants the opportunity to interact individually with mentors \, ask questions\, receive personalized advice\, and gain guidance about a cademic development\, technical skills\, career opportunities\, and involv ement in IEEE activities.\n\nInformative discussions introduced participan ts to IEEE opportunities\, upcoming activities\, and IEEEXtreme. Networkin g sessions allowed students to exchange experiences\, meet members from ot her Student Branches\, and learn more about participating in IEEE initiati ves.\n\nThe event also included opportunities for informal interaction and refreshments\, creating a welcoming environment for participants througho ut the day.\n\nCollaboration and Organization\n\nThe three Student Branche s collaborated on the preparation and organization of the event. Responsib ilities were distributed among the branches\, including registration and c ommunication\, event materials and refreshments\, decoration\, sponsorship coordination\, activity preparation\, and the organization of mentoring s essions.\n\nConclusion\n\nIEEE Day 2026 provided an opportunity to celebra te the IEEE community\, strengthen cooperation between the participating S tudent Branches\, and encourage student engagement through interactive act ivities\, personalized mentoring\, and knowledge sharing. The event highli ghted the importance of teamwork\, networking\, mentorship\, and collabora tion within the IEEE community.\n\nSpeaker(s): Rayen chebbi\, Oussema Ben Mahmoud \, salim Hamouda\, Jaber Soyed\n\nAgenda: \nIEEE Day 2026 – Even t Planning\n\nOrganizing Student Branches: IEEE ESSTHS\, IEEE EPI\, and IE EE ISSATSo\nLocation: EPI Sousse\nDate: 15 October 2026\n\n1.
