The Computer Society is one of the top three IEEE Madison member groups with about 60 members. Other related Societies in IEEE Madison include Circuits and Systems, Industrial Electronics, Power Electronics, Signal Processing, and Solid-State Circuits. Total IEEE Madison membership is around 660 people. While there is not always a direct overlap between computer hardware and software and data science, about 160 or 24% of our members are in data, computer and electronics related societies. We hope to see you all there.
