The ceremony was part of the National Conclave and was attended by over 1,000 people. The Nu Eta Chapter is the first one in the state of Tamilnadu.
2023 IEEE-HKN President Elect Ryan Bales conducted the installation ceremony for the Nu Theta Chapter at Purdue University Northwest, on 19 October, 2023 in Hammond Indiana where 13 students were inducted into the 119-year old honor society.
