#workshop

The 1st Hokkaido Young Professionals Workshop will be held on October 14, 2021, Muroran and online. This workshop is organized by IEEE Sapporo Young Professionals (Sapporo YP), IEEE Muroran Institute of Technology Student Branch. This workshop is co-supported by Emerging Networks and Systems Laboratory (ENeS), Muroran Institute of Technology and IEEE R10 Young Professionals New and Dormant Affinity Group Fund 2021. 

IEEE Sapporo Section Young Professionals (YP00977) is established on March 20, 2020. Sapporo YP aims at expanding the membership of IEEE as well as increasing the popularity and influence of IEEE in Hokkaido. Moreover, Sapporo YP also considers supporting IEEE student members in their early careers who just graduate from universities in Hokkaido.

The nature of this workshop is to attract the attention of young researchers in Hokkaido area to our newly established Sapporo YP. Our workshop includes two keynote speeches given by distinguished young professionals sharing ideas on the latest research topics. Moreover, we hold a student presentation contest to encourage students to exercise their ability to give presentations as well as sharing opinions in researches. We fully consider the possible impact of COVID-19 and chose a hybrid mode for hold activities. Local audiences can join our events face-to-face while remote audiences can also experience the same content.
