5. AIEE + IRE = IEEE The badge of the new IEEEcombined the right hand rulefrom the IRE with the kite fromthe AIEE 1962 Symposium on the proposedmerger, IRE National Convention Special merger issue of theProceedings of the IRE The idea that there should be one organization for all electrical engineers was an old one, and became more powerful as the profession expanded beyond its separate roots in power and radio. In 1962, the boards and memberships of the two institutes agreed to merge. On January 1, 1963, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers was born with 150,000 members.
