IEEE SMC Junior 2016 will be held for the first time as a new initiative of IEEE SMC Society, which will serves as satellite conference of the society’s flagship dedicated to Students, Graduated Students and Young Professionals. This new establishment will be parallel to, but not separated from the SMC 2016 flagship conference, which means that every Junior participant can attend all SMC 2016 events as well:

• Social events will be common (welcome reception, banquette)
• Venue will be the same (common spots for the sections)
• Common conference proceedings 

Why participate from professional point of view?

• SMC 2016 and SMC Junior 2016 is a great opportunity for every student for:
• Building a strong, professional and international network and improve your networking skills
• Meet with and learn from Professionals from the same scientific field
• SMC 2016 is a strong, internationally ranking conference (ideal for MSc and PhD student to strengthening their thesis)
