Graduate Student Workshop 2008

The IEEE Power & Energy Society together with IEEE Industry Applications/ Power Electronics chapters is pleased to announce the first Graduate Student Workshop on September 24th, 2008, at the Engineering Auditorium, National University of Singapore. It will be a one-day event including a panel session in the morning and technical sessions for students in the afternoon. The guest speakers in the morning will be invited from academia as well as industry.

The main objective of this workshop is to create a forum for graduate students from NUS and NTU working in the broad areas of Power systems and Power Electronics to exchange the latest research findings and ideas. It will also provide a good networking opportunity for students and faculty in universities, engineers and researchers from local industry and research institutions in Singapore.
