Make sure you keep checking the UEC website for news and upcoming events. The UEC has been very busy over the holidays planning  heaps of great educational and social events to keep you informed and entertained! 2010 is shaping up to be a very exiting year for the UEC.

Also, please take to time to visit our 2010 sponsors websites. Not only are they helping us to provide you with some great events but they are also interested in you! Taking the time to get to know a little about what each company has to offer will certainly be of great help to you in the future. 

If you have any questions about about the UEC, Engineering at UWA or about our events, please don't hesitate to contact me at president@uec.org.au.

Best of luck for 2010!

The second round of UEC nominations are now open.

If you wish to apply for any of these positions please send a short spiel and a photo of yourself to secretary@uec.org.au. Please ensure you specify the position you are applying for.

Nominations will close on Monday, November 16th.

The available positions and their responsibilities are listed below:

Thank you to everyone who nominated and voted for a position.  There were quite a few positions that were very close.  Without further delay, the UEC 2010 Committee (so far) is:

The UEC has been awarded by the UWA Student Guild the title of Best Faculty Society for 2009.  This is the second year in a row the UEC has won this award.

The UEC would like to thank the ECM student body, the ECM Faculty, the UWA Student Guild and all UEC sponsors for their support over the past year.  Further, a big thank you goes to every member of the UEC Committee who put in an incredible effort over the past year and made such an amazing achievement possible.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the UEC and we look forward to another fantastic year in 2010. 

You now have the opportunity to decide who will represent you at a Faculty and School level.  Do not miss out on this opportunity.  If the best person for the job is not elected it will be the student body who suffers through a lack of representation, services and events.  The UEC endeavours to represent all students in the ECM Faculty and this is only possible if the committee consists of a diverse range of enthusiastic and proactive students. 

Voting will take place at the following places/dates:

• Outside the Engineering Common room - 1 to 2pm Wednesday 14th to Friday 16th October
• Computer Science School - 1 to 2pm Monday 19th October
• Maths, EECE and SESE - 1 to 2pm Tuesday 20th October
