The EUS Scholarship is here!

In order to foster growth, leadership, initiative, and innovation in the engineering community, the EUS feels it is important for the community to acknowledge and give back to those individuals who go above and beyond expectations and positively impact UBC engineering.

From now on, every year the EUS will give back $3000 in scholarships to engineering undergraduate students! Applications are due electronically to vpacademic@ubcengineers.ca on 31 May 2009 for the first batch of scholarships, which will be given out in September 2009. The $3000 is divided into four awards: two will be junior awards ($500 value each) for students entering second or third year. The other two will be senior awards ($1000 each) for students with fourth-year standing in September.

For full details and the application, please see the attached document: 2009 EUS Scholarship Application Form

Good luck on exams, and happy applying!

APSC Student Senator Applications due 28 November!

Posted By Daniel Olson (President) on November 17th, 2008
Posted in Applications, Get Involved, Services | Comments Off

Our current Applied Science student senator, Philip Edgcumbe, will be resigning his post at the end of this term, and as such we are looking for a replacement for January to March 2009! The applications (found here) are due on 28 November electronically to senator -at- ubcengineers d0t ca or in hard copy to the VP Academic box in the Cheeze.

See below for a description of what a senator does (courtesy of Philip):

“The Vancouver UBC Senate is the highest academic governing of UBC Vancouver. It has approximately 90 members of which about 1/4 are students, 1/2 are faculty and 1/4 are the Deans and the upper level administrators at UBC.

As the Applied Science Student Senator, representing engineering and nursing undergrad students as well as graduate students in architecture, you will be expected to sit on one or two of the approximately 20 Senate committees, which generally meet monthly or bi-monthly. Two examples of Senate committees are the Senate Curriculum Committee (approves all new courses and entries into the UBC calendar) and the Student Appeals on Academic Discipline (students appeal the academic disciplinary decision of the President’s office if they feel their punishment is too harsh.) Your position as senator also gives you a certain credibility within the faculties you represent. For example, the last student senator worked with the EUS and the Engineering Dean’s office to organize a “Beef and Pizza” forum where students could come and share their concerns with student leaders and the Associate Dean, Engineering Students.

UBC student senators are also members of the Student Senate Caucus which meets for two hours before each Senate meeting. At the Student Senate Caucus meetings students update each other about the progress of their respective committees as well as preparing for the Senate meeting.”
