About
In the digital age where interactions happen predominantly in an online manner, an opportunity of direct, in-person interaction with eminent computing researchers cannot be overemphasized. Such interactions with Distinguished Pioneers and Leaders in the ECE field would go a long way in inspiring the research audience and enhance the visibility of research contributions as well.
To address the research area and gender diversity aspects, we aim to organize a minimum of two ECE-DV trips per year, with a particular effort to include one woman Distinguished Visitor (DV).
