About
Systems thinking, for students.
The IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society (SMCS) is a technical society within IEEE focused on systems engineering, human–machine systems and cybernetics.
Our community
A student initiative at REVA University
This community brings together students from engineering disciplines who share an interest in how complex systems are designed, controlled and used by people.
Status: Student community at REVA University. Official IEEE unit status is pending confirmation.
