Original Press Release:
IEEE-USA Launches New Flagship Publication, IEEE-USA InSight
WASHINGTON, -- IEEE-USA is launching a new flagship publication, IEEE-USA InSight. This modern online magazine will be continually refreshed with original stories on technology careers, public policy and trends, engineering history and skills such as teamwork and effective communication.Â
The current IEEE-USA InSight homepage features stories on the portrayal of engineering and technology in pop culture, the rise and fall of the fax machine and why IEEE-USA President Jim Jefferies thinks this is a great time to be a U.S. IEEE member.
"Technical professionals in all of our fields of interest will lead the way on the innovation path, and it is our business at IEEE-USA to support that path from precollege education to retirement," Jefferies writes in his first President's column. "I urge you to look for and access that career and policy information that fits you and comes with your membership."
The publication launch coincides with the debut of IEEE-USA's new Shop site, where IEEE-USA E-Books are discoverable and available for purchase. IEEE members will find it easy to use their IEEE Web accounts to add products to their Xplore shopping cart.Â
In addition to timely content, IEEE-USA InSight offers readers the ability to comment inline, rate stories, respond to short polls and take advantage of a vastly improved search engine when looking for specific content. Plus, it is optimized for desktop computers, tablets and mobile phones.
"IEEE-USA InSight will continue to bring engineers, technologists and others timely stories and career advice," said Murty Polavarapu, IEEE-USA vice president, communications & public awareness. "It is a forward-looking publication featuring the latest technology and interactivity today's professional has come to expect."
IEEE-USA InSight replaces the award-winning Today's Engineer and IEEE-USA In Action. Today's Engineer began as a quarterly print publication in 1998 and continued in that format for 12 issues until the fourth quarter of 2000. It moved online until its final edition in December 2014.
IEEE-USA in Action was a highly interactive publication that appeared quarterly from April of 2010 until the spring of 2013. Its content and that of Today's Engineer will be archived online.
IEEE-USA serves the public good and promotes the careers and public policy interests of more than 200,000 engineering, computing and technology professionals who are U.S. members of IEEE.Â
