The IEEE Dibrugarh University Antennas and Propagation (AP) Society was officially inaugurated on 9th May 2025 at 10:00 AM in an offline ceremony, marking a major step forward for our university’s IEEE community. The event began with the ceremonial lighting of the lamp, signifying the dispelling of  ignorance through the light of knowledge. Our Head of the Department and Chapter Advisor Dr. Haraprasad Mondal then delivered a welcome address, reflecting on the growing  significance of antenna and propagation research and the role of such academic communities in  shaping the future. The presence of our Director Sir and all faculty members added to the gravitas of the occasion. 

Two eminent guest speakers graced the occasion: 


● Professor Christophe Fumeaux, Professor at the University of Queensland, Australia, and President of the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society, joined us virtually.  Prof. Fumeaux spoke about the evolving landscape of antenna design in the context of emerging technologies such as 5G, IoT, and biomedical applications. He also  discussed the IEEE AP Society’s global initiatives and the value of student  engagement in professional development, urging attendees to explore collaborative  international opportunities. 


● Professor Debatosh Guha, from the Institute of Radiophysics and Electronics, University of Calcutta, and a Distinguished Lecturer of the IEEE AP Society, was  present on campus. His engaging talk explored advanced design challenges in  compact antenna systems and the practical nuances of achieving high-efficiency performance in modern RF systems. His real-world case studies and ability to simplify complex concepts captured the interest of both students and faculty. 

The event also featured a grand unveiling of the official logo and website of the IEEE AP Society, which was launched by our Webmaster. This digital milestone marks the society’s formal online presence and will serve as a hub for updates, resources, and upcoming events.  In addition, Chapter Chair Souvik Ghosh presented a comprehensive overview of the chapter’s vision, planned initiatives, and budget allocations. His presentation laid the  foundation for a year of impactful student activities, hands-on learning, and professional growth. 


With an audience of 55+ enthusiastic students,and many faculty members, the event was a celebration of innovation,  knowledge-sharing, and community-building. The interactive nature of the guest sessions, combined with the collective excitement of launching something new, made the inauguration a  resounding success and a memorable beginning for the IEEE AP Society at Dibrugarh University.
