The IEEE Society on Social Implications of Technology (SSIT)‘s Field of Interest according to its constitution is:
“the impact of technology (as embodied by the fields of interest of IEEE) on society, including both positive and negative effects, the impact of society on the engineering profession, the history of the societal aspects of electro technology, and professional social and economic responsibility in the practice of engineering and its related technology.”
The society was founded in 1972 as the Committee on Social Implications of Technology. It was given its current name in 1982.
SSIT operates as a Society under the IEEE Technical Activities Board (TAB)
2022 is the 50th Foundation Day of IEEE’s Commitment on Social Implications of Technology.
