The Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) is made up of graduates and friends of the Department
of Electrical and Computer Engineering here at Texas Tech University. IAB members
are successful engineers, business people, and entrepreneurs representing a broad
range of industries and disciplines. Past and present members work in the defense,
power, semi−conductor, computer, instrumentation, and telecom industries, just to
name a few. Companies represented on the IAB range from some of the world's largest
corporations to research labs to start-ups to family−owned businesses.
IAB members travel to Texas Tech from across the country to attend semi-annual board
meetings. We meet on the Friday before the football homecoming game in the Fall, and
usually in early to mid−April in the Spring.
