DESCRIPTION:[]\n\nThe inauguration of the IEEE Stevens Institute of Technol
 ogy Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) Student Branch Chapter\, in co
 njunction with the workshop on Antennas\, Electromagnetics\, and AI-Enable
 d Communication Systems\, is designed to foster academic\, professional\, 
 and interdisciplinary engagement in advancing next-generation technologies
 . The event convenes students\, researchers\, and practitioners to explore
  innovative approaches that integrate classical electromagnetic theory\, s
 ignal processing\, coding\, robotics\, artificial intelligence\, augmented
  reality\, the Internet of Things\, green energy\, and climate-conscious t
 echnologies with modern intelligent systems. Emphasis is placed on applica
 tions spanning healthcare\, sustainable energy\, environmental monitoring\
 , and global connectivity. By aligning technological innovation with the U
 nited Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs)\, the workshop under
 scores the pivotal role of antenna design\, electromagnetic modeling\, and
  AI-driven communication frameworks in addressing societal challenges\, pr
 omoting sustainability\, and inspiring future leaders in engineering and t
 echnology.\n\nThis workshop will feature international invited talks\, pan
 el sessions\, IEEE student poster competitions on intelligent systems-enab
 led humanitarian technology\, IEEE student branch activities\, and IEEE me
 mbership drives. The best student poster awards will be selected\, and the
  corresponding projects can be financially supported for further research 
 by IEEE AP-S SIGHT and IEEE AP-S COPE.\n\nThis workshop will feature inter
 national invited talks\, panel sessions\, IEEE student poster competitions
  on intelligent systems-enabled humanitarian technology\, IEEE student bra
 nch activities\, and IEEE membership drives. The best student poster award
 s will be selected\, and the corresponding projects can be financially sup
 ported for further research by IEEE AP-S SIGHT and IEEE AP-S COPE.\n\nVenu
