How to start a chapter

To find other SSCS members in your section, ask your section executive committee to help get you started. Organize a kick-off meeting with a Guest Distinguished Lecturer from SSCS and plan far enough in advance to use your section's newsletter to attract interest.
There are three alternative organizational goals to start an SSCS chapter. The formation steps for each type of chapter is different.
1. a local chapter devoted solely to the SSCS mission may be formed. 1. To form a new chapter for the first time, 12 SSCS members in a section must sign a petition and have the local section execuitve committee endorse it.
2. an existing chapter may be redefined by Section leaders as joint chapter.  Common candidates might be Circuits and Systems or Electron Devices chapters.  2. To add a society for a joint chapter, merely a letter requesting the change to a joint chapter, is needed from the local section executive committee to the Regional Activities Office. 
3. a new joint chapter 3. To form a new joint chapter for the first time, not less than 3 of the 12 signatures on the petition shall be members of each Society.  Have the local section executive committee endorse it. 
To find the members of your local section executive committee, look for the list in your section newsletter or ask the SSCS Executive Office

SSCS Field of Interest

The Solid-State Circuits Society is interested in all aspects of solid-state circuits: the design, testing and application of circuits and subsystems, as well as closely related topics in device  technology and circuit theory. We also focus on scientific, technical and industrial applications, or other activities that contribute to the field, or utilize the  techniques or products of the field, subject, as the art develops.

Chapters provide an important opportunity for local technical experts to meet, and discuss current technical developments such as; the results of local industry efforts, ongoing university research, reports on the highlights of conferences, as well as the work of Distinguished Lecturers.
