Seven chapters and affinity groups, one community of young engineers — inspiring each other to achieve, and leading our community to greater heights through the worldwide IEEE network.
We inspire future engineers to achieve, and lead our community to greater heights — by giving every student a platform to reach out to the world and try everything, because we believe in the impact engineers can make to build a better tomorrow for everyone.
To be the go-to place for professionals and students in the engineering, science and technology community of the University of Peradeniya.
To establish ourselves as a platform for collaboration, innovation and professional development — creating and bridging the gap to the opportunities IEEE offers, within the university and beyond, through the strength of the worldwide IEEE network.
Every chapter has its own webmaster, its own page and its own events — so what you see here is what’s actually happening this week.
The road to IEEEXtreme — 24 hours, one global leaderboard.
IEEEXtreme is a 24-hour global coding competition held on the same day in locations around the world, organised by IEEE. Pera Xtreme is how the branch gets Peradeniya’s teams ready — awareness sessions, practice contests like CodeVortex, proctoring and a night-long coding arcade on campus.
Sri Lanka’s AI prediction challenge for undergraduates.
As a pioneering IEEE student branch, we introduced Predicta — an AI prediction challenge with a novel structure where teams apply AI, machine learning and data analytics to real-world problems. With AI and data science as “the new electricity”, Predicta inspires participants to explore and experiment with the technology itself.
Six weeks. Small circles. A big head start.

From the first IEEE student branch in the country to seven active chapters — a quarter-century of engineers building for a better tomorrow.
Founded on 19 July 2001 at the Faculty of Engineering with the help of IEEE senior members and dedicated student members.
The branch’s first website, launched by the 2010 committee headed by Mr. B.L.D.S. Balasooriya under the guidance of Prof. Lilantha Samaranayake and Dr. A. Atputharaja, won the R10 contest.
The Microwave Theory and Technology Society chapter begins — later funding a 4.6 m parabolic antenna to serve as a radio telescope.
MTT-S runs its first antenna workshop with Eng. Tharindu Dayarathne, creator of Raavana-1 — Sri Lanka’s first CubeSat.
Xtreme.Pera-23 brings IEEEXtreme to campus: teams compete through the night at the Faculty of Engineering, alongside the global contest.
A national AI prediction challenge on Kaggle joins the flagship line-up, and Pera.Xtreme CodeVortex trains teams for IEEEXtreme 18.0.
The newest member of the #ieeepdn family opens doors to tech innovation — WIE, ComSoc and PES keep a packed calendar of talks, visits and outreach.
LEVEL UP draws 350+ participants, seven chapters and affinity groups share one branch — and a brand-new home on the web, kept fresh by every chapter’s own webmaster.
After a needs assessment, IEEE CS prepared personalised relief packages for University of Peradeniya students affected by flooding — supported by the IEEE Sri Lanka Section.
A guest lecture on who owns AI-generated content, how regulators around the world are responding, and how to use AI responsibly without losing human creativity.
