Since its establishment on 1994 as the Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE) Young Members Section Sri Lanka, which was the second younger members section outside the UK, IET Young Professionals Sri Lanka has become a dynamic platform for nurturing engineering talent and promoting professional growth. Evolving alongside the formation of The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) in 2006, our group has been a cornerstone for young engineers in Sri Lanka, fostering innovation and teamwork.

 With founding figures like Prof. JR Lucas, Prof. IJ Dayawansa, and Dr. Wijayatunga, our journey includes pivotal milestones, from the first committee in 1997 led by Eng.Dilan Walgampaya, to our recent 2021 IET Volunteer Core Value Award.

 Today, the IET YP Sri Lanka remains committed to empowering future engineers through initiatives like student scholarships and the IET Young Woman Engineer Award. Our current executive team, led by Eng. Nimantha Madushan and myself as Chairman and Vice Chairman are pushing boundaries locally and internationally.
