Is IET suitable for Mechanical Engineers?

Like Moshe says, there is no secret! From the IET website:

The IET is one of the world’s largest engineering institutions with Over 167,000 members in 127 countries. It is also the most multidisciplinary – to reflect the increasingly diverse nature of engineering in the 21st century.

The IET is working to engineer a better world by inspiring, informing and influencing our members, engineers and technicians, and all those who are touched by, or touch, the work of engineers.

I don't think it could be any clearer. What to tell your friend? Well, he can find this information for himself with a couple of seconds of Googling!


Whether the IET or another institution would suit his needs better is not an easy question to answer without knowing your friend and what he expects from his professional home. Perhaps he should consider what's important to him, such as local learned society activity, special interest groups, access to member services etc.
