21 Student Branches Vision Facilitate the interaction & communication with the Student Branches all over Region 8 Make the information as accessible as possible to everyone By growing a FAMILY we are increasing numbers

22 Family makes a house a home! Student Branches

23 Student Branches Mission Engage with the students by sending personalized s (may take a lot of time but totally worth it) Creation of volunteer pool: Investing in people Collect updated s into a database Student Branches Section Chairs, SSRs and SSACs

24 Student Branches Together, let s inspire the students of Today, the leaders of Tomorrow

25 Student Branches Network for IEEE student branch/student chapter counselors and advisors First phase (2016): Collected ideas and shared them with MGA SAC. Second Phase (2017): Communicate with the winners of last year s Outstanding Counselor Awards and ask them 2-3 key questions to be able to find a model and provide to other SB counselors. Evaluate and select ideas will form a pilot system to run in our region (2018) Announce the programme (enotice/collabratec) to all the Region 8 Counselors and ask for their participations. Report the outcomes to MGA SAC to get feedback and transfer the experience to the other regions.

26 Student Paper Contest

27 Student Paper Contest IEEE R8 Student Paper Contest is an annual event divided into two parts: 1. Part I: Papers are invited from IEEE students in Region 8. Papers without names or affiliations are marked by five jury members. Best five papers are chosen. 2. Part II: Papers are presented at an IEEE R8 Conference (EUROCON or MELECON) and published in the conference proceedings. IEEE R8 pays for the five students to attend the conference and present the paper. What? IEEE R8 also gives money prizes to the best three out of the five and a small prize to the student branch of the winning paper. All valid participants will be given a certificate of participation for their effort preparing the paper.

28 Student Paper Contest SPC is an excellent occasion for personal leadership and involvement of student members in a prospective IEEE scientific/technical activity; SPC is a very good reason and chance for activating and keeping active Student Branches It makes possible further promotion of IEEE among students; Why? It is an attractive situation for IEEE members with non-student grades - the local and regional SPC Committee (Jury) members, Region 8 Technical Activities Committee associate reviewers, Student Branch Counselors, Professors (student mentors) and many others- to be involved and to participate in such an interesting IEEE student activity.

29 Student Paper Contest Who? IEEE student members presenting work at the level of graduate, masters Any subject matters within IEEE. The material does not have to be at the technical front edge of an IEEE magazine paper, but must include the usual: o Theory, importance of the work, results, comparisons, and conclusions normally expected in a good engineering paper.
