Undergraduate Student Representative Committee
Introduction
The School of Electrical Engineering is a large school with over 600 students. To ensure that these students can interact, build friendships, and enjoy a convenient academic life, representatives are needed to carry out various tasks for the School. Accordingly, the School of Electrical Engineering’s Student Representative Committee is actively working to promote camaraderie, welfare, and communication among students. The committee consists of a total of eight students, with four representatives from each of the second and third years (one school representative and three vice representatives).
Major Events
Spring Semester
Fall Semester
Annual Events
Spring Semester
Semester Opening Party
The semester opening party is held within the first one to two weeks after the semester begins. This is the first departmental event for second-year newcomers in the School of Electrical Engineering. It is also a gathering where all undergraduate students come together and an opportunity to introduce the newly elected second-year student representatives to professors and the entire student body.
Second-Year Student MT & Orientation
This Membership Training (MT) aims to foster friendships among second-year undergraduate newcomers. Alongside the MT, an orientation (OT) is conducted to provide information about the major, departmental events, and facilities. Students participate in games with their assigned Saeteo groups, helping them bond and get acquainted. This event serves as the first opportunity for students to build friendships, which later facilitates participation in Saeteo group missions.
Strawberry Party
In early April, when strawberries are in season, the Strawberry Party takes place on the department’s lawn. Students gather in circles with their Saeteo groups or close friends to enjoy strawberries and other snacks. The student council president hosts simple games where students can win additional treats to enjoy with their strawberries.
Workshop
Although similar to an MT in that all undergraduate students spend two days and one night together, the workshop is held at a resort and features lectures and various programs with the participation of many professors. This event is significant as it provides an opportunity for students and professors to engage closely over an extended period.
Second-Year Student Discussion Session
Similar to an MT in structure, this event takes place over two days and one night at a resort, featuring lectures and various activities led by professors. It serves as an essential opportunity for second-year students to engage in meaningful discussions and gain academic and professional insights.
Open Lab
Each research lab hosts an Open Lab, where they introduce their research fields and graduate school life to all interested students. Students from other departments are also welcome to participate. Light refreshments are provided at the labs for attending students.
Fall Semester
Fall Semester MT
This Membership Training (MT) is designed to foster friendships among undergraduate students. Unlike the spring MT, this event is open to students from all year levels. The MT features various fun recreational programs aimed at strengthening bonds among students.
Sports Festival
The Sports Festival is an event where both undergraduate and graduate students participate. It kicks off with the final match of the soccer tournament, where the competing teams are determined through preliminary rounds between undergraduate teams and six graduate school groups. After the soccer match, additional activities such as board flipping games, dodgeball, and other athletic competitions take place. There are also fun game booths featuring activities like pogo stick jumping. The event concludes with a barbecue party and a live performance by the EE Band.
Sweatshirt & Varsity Jacket Design Contest
This contest is open to students from the School of Electrical Engineering and the Department of Industrial Design. Participants submit designs for a sweatshirt or “Yajam” (short for “yakoo jumper,” referring to a varsity-style jacket popular among university students). The first and second-place winners receive prizes, and the top-winning design is produced as the official departmental sweatshirt or jacket for that year.
EEInformation Session
This session is hosted by the student representative committee to provide information about the department to undeclared major (undecided) students. It offers insights into what students can learn in the School of Electrical Engineering and the advantages of joining the department. The event serves as a valuable guide to help first-year students without a declared major make informed decisions about their academic path.
Annual Events
Snack Event
During each exam period, delicious snacks are provided to support undergraduate students who are exhausted from studying. Some of the snacks offered include Bongousse rice burgers and Cyburgers.
Saeteo Group Mission
Every month, Saeteo groups participate in assigned missions aimed at strengthening the sense of unity within the School of Electrical Engineering. Groups that successfully complete their missions receive meal subsidies for group gatherings. This initiative encourages students to build friendships, support one another in their studies, and foster a collaborative academic environment.
