Advances in Communications, Devices and Systems 2022

The Imperial College IEEE Student Branch is teaming up with the EEE PhD Student Representatives to bring you the 2022 IEEE Conference on Advances in Communications, Devices and Systems (ACDS), to be held on the 5th of September 2022.  

This year’s conference will host the first ever Imperial IEEE Student Paper Contest. This is an opportunity for undergraduate or MSc students to present their work and get a chance to win an all-expense-paid trip to EUROCON 2023 in Turin, Italy! Further details are below. 

The conference is a great way to showcase your work to the Imperial community and to train your presentation skills. Events throughout the day will include poster presentations, keynote speeches and networking events, so don’t miss out!
