Major Advantages • Being an engineer (especially an ICT engineer) is very prestigious • Very very competitive Electrical and Computer Engineering Departments (e.g. our university receives students from 0.01% in a 2 million student central exam) • Large government spending for R&D in ICT, and incentives for the industry

  6. Major Disadvantages • There is no IEEE Turkey • We do not have any financial support from IEEE since there is no IEEE Turkey • Visibility through a web page or social media is not straightforward since there is no IEEE Turkey • Increasing IEEE COMSOC Conference fees may become prohibitive for our members and graduate students
