About the Society

Introduction to the Iranian Society of Control and Instrumentation Engineers

The Iranian Society of Control and Instrumentation Engineers (ISCIE) is a non-profit organization that began its activities in 1992 (1371 in the Iranian calendar).

The Society was founded through the collaboration of experts and individuals interested in the fields of control and instrumentation. After a period of inactivity due to the Islamic Revolution, it officially resumed operations in 1992. The Society is currently operating under its fifteenth board of directors.

Objectives of the Society

The Society’s main objectives include:

  • Promoting and advancing knowledge and technology in control systems and instrumentation in Iran

  • Facilitating communication and collaboration among professionals

  • Improving education and research in related fields

  • Contributing to the resolution of challenges in control and instrumentation across industries

Activities and Programs

The Society strives to achieve its goals through a range of initiatives, including:

  • Enhancing scientific, technical, and research collaborations at national and international levels

  • Organizing regular meetings to exchange knowledge among experts

  • Offering specialized training courses

  • Publishing the latest scientific and technical developments

  • Hosting conferences and exhibitions focused on modern control systems and instrumentation technologies

Organizational Structure

Every two years, the Society holds a General Assembly where members elect a Board of Directors and auditors.

The elected board consists of seven principal members and two alternate members, all of whom have expertise in control and instrumentation within fields such as electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and computer engineering.

After the board is elected, it forms specialized committees to help advance the Society’s mission and goals through division of responsibilities.

Achievements of the Society

Since its inception, the Society has made significant progress, including:

  • Conducting numerous training programs tailored to the needs of professionals

  • Publishing newsletters, magazines, and scientific journals

  • Maintaining regular communication with industries and other technical/professional societies

  • Becoming a member of IFAC (International Federation of Automatic Control)

  • Actively participating—alongside its member companies—in all relevant exhibitions on control, instrumentation, and automation

  • Publishing books and CD guides related to instrumentation

Membership

Given the interdisciplinary nature of control and instrumentation, professionals, researchers, and engineering students are eligible for individual membership in the Society.

Depending on their academic background and professional experience, individuals may join as honorary, regular, associate, or student members.

All members are invited to participate in lectures, workshops, and training courses. Newsletters are also regularly distributed to members.

Organizations, institutions, and companies operating in relevant fields may apply for corporate membership.
