Message from Editor

Greetings!

We are delighted to share and announce that the IEEE MAS LINK for May-June 2021 is available online.

This issue is packed with many educational, fascinating, entertaining, and inspiring activities. With the COVID situation continuing, most of the events were virtual. However, the number of events increased exponentially and reached epic proportions. Apart from the regular activities, it is vital to keep the members motivated and engaged in lockdown time. More specifically, the student-members and faculties need to keep up the momentum of learning and expanding their skillset.

We request all SB counselors, Society chapter chairs, and other reporting officers to report the events conducted promptly. This would really motivate our fellow IEEE members. We respectfully suggest that all newsletter communications follow the guidelines for timely publication of the Newsletter. The guidelines for reporting the newsletter is given at

https://www.ieeemadras.org/ieee-mas-link/

It shall be noted that the inclusion of reports into the Newsletter is at the discretion of the Editorial team.

We appreciate all the volunteers for their support and active participation.
