  18. Goals/Proposals 2006 (contd) • [2] To increase Student Memberships and Retain Them • (Will work with MDC on Incentives to Sections for Students Moving onto Members Grade) • My Proposal (3 Years Incentives for Sections): • 1st Year: USD2 for the Section when Student (Incl. GSM) move to become a Full Member • 2nd Year: Another USD2 if that Member continues to be a member • 3rd Year: Another USD2 for the Section if the same Member continues his/her membership for another year • Cost to R10 • About 18,000 Student Members (if all become members, this will cost R10 USD36,000 in 2007, if 40% then its about USD14,400) • Could balloon to USD42,000 in the third year and further…

  19. Goals/Proposals 2006 (contd) • [3] To increase new SBs but also to reduce Inactive SBs • This former has already been done • Still find difficulty to improve conditions of Inactive SBs • [4] Set up a Database of all SAC in Councils/SB Counselors/SAC Chairs/SB Chairs of Sections • This is ongoing • [5] Provide FURTHER support to RAB on the formation of new membership students grade in R10 of “Graduate Students” and “Students” (Undergraduate) [as proposed by RAB] • Would be interesting how GSM can improve students membership and retention

  20. Regarding the Regular Student Membership Student Member • (a) A Student Member must satisfy the following conditions (1) carry at least 50% of a normal full-time academic program as a registered undergraduate or graduate student in a regular course of study in IEEE-designated fields; and (2) not yet qualify for Member grade. The total cumulative period for a member to hold the Student Member grade and/or the Graduate Student Member grade shall be limited to 8 years. • (b) Student Members, upon graduation or upon reaching the 8-year limit (whichever occurs first), with at least a baccalaureate or higher degree (or its equivalent) from a school and a designated field on the IEEE REP List shall be transferred to Member grade. • (c) Student Members other than those qualifying under subparagraph (b), upon graduation or upon reaching the 8-year limit (whichever occurs first) shall be transferred to Associate Member grade.

  21. Graduate Student Membership (GSM) • In July 2005, RAB members and Regional Activities Department staff made a decision to promote and advertise GSM in 2006 when it will be fully implemented with the new IEEE Business Management System (BMS). • Regional Activities staff will inform individuals that students who are currently attending graduate school and would qualify as GSMs are eligible to be elected/appointed to serve as Section/Chapter/Affinity group officers. • The credentials and achievements of GSMs will allow them to: • Hold office in Section/Chapter/Affinity groups • Vote in IEEE elections • Get more actively involved in IEEE activities as volunteers • IEEE Bylaw I-104

  22. Graduate Student Member (GSM) • A GSM must qualify for Member grade and carry at least 50% of a normal full-time academic program as a registered graduate student in a regular course of study in IEEE- designated fields. The total cumulative period for a member to hold the Student Member grade and/or the Graduate Student Member grade shall be limited to 8 years. • GSM upon graduation or upon reaching the total cumulative 8-year limit as a Student Member and/or GSM (whichever occurs first), shall be transferred to Member grade.

  23. Summary on GSM • GSM has been implemented finally • IEEE Database at HQ Level will be ready to categorize GSM status as of July 2006 • GSM still pay students fee but will be eligible to vote (as of Sept. 2006) • GSM will be able to hold (volunteer position) office at Section and Chapter Level • SAC Committee proposes to have GRSR (Graduate Regional Student Rep at the Region Level - to be proposed at Fall SAC Mtg)

  24. New Activities for Students Coming Up! • DC Exemplary Students Activity Award • RAB approved this Award in the Nov. RAB meeting • First Submission: February 2006 • This Award will be given to any Activity organized by any IEEE Student Branch that is deemed beneficial or successful • Criteria will be out soon • Awards in the form of Plaque categorized as Platinum, Gold, Silver or Bronze • Also will be advertised in Virtual Hall of Fame on Student Concourse • Judges: Current and Past SAC Committee • No limit to number of Awards • Submit to getplatinum@ieee.org • Criteria already available now

  26. SPAAStudents Professional Awareness Activities • R1-6 under IEEE USA SPAC Funding • SPAA is for R7-R10 under RAB Funding

  27. SPAA Criteria • The “Usefulness” of this activity to the students • Also what they can get after the activity…. • For SPAA Funding – apply to Joey Duvall • Funding from USD100~USD1000 may be obtained • Need to submit a proposal and pre-budget- send to j.duvall@ieee.org

  28. SPAA “Philosophy” • Emphasis on • Professional Awareness • Professional Development • Promotion to Students • Concept • Benefits

  29. What do we need to address? • Awareness • Information Dissemination • Website • Promotion • Committee Makeup • Establish Regional Liaisons for R7-10 • Identify “Local” Speakers for R7-10

  30. SPAAWebsite will be enhanced • Link on Student Concourse (exists) • Separate (intermediate) page for SPAA? • Translation of pages into separate languages? • Include examples/ideas • Successful Programs • Others (e.g., venture capitalism) • Revised “Quick Start Guide” • SPAA Event Calendar

  31. Example of a SPAC Event proposed by a R10 Student Branch • The student branch of IEEE at National Engineering College (NEC), Kovilpatti, INDIA organized a national level "Student Professional Awareness Conference" (S-PAC) on creating professional awareness and developing management skills among upcoming engineers (5th Sept 2005). • About 300 delegates from all over the State representing 15 different schools participated in the conference

  32. Summary of the Event • Engineering graduates know how to design circuits and write code, but struggle when it comes to planning meetings or organizing presentations. • Engineering schools are reluctant to add these non-technical skills to an already full curriculum. • In reality, these non-technical competencies are just as critical to an engineer's future as his technical training. • Hence the conduct of such programs will certainly help to develop the professional behavior of the Engineers.

  33. Promotion of SPAA • At Regional events, etc. • Paraphernalia (Promotional Material) • Posters • Pens • etc.

  34. Speakers • No official Speakers Database/list for SPAA • Identify local speakers within areas • Begin with prior participants • Examine R8 Professional Speakers list as potential “partnership” opportunity for R8

  35. Other Ideas • Worldwide Contest? • Additional SPAA Training for RSACs/RSRs • To be conducted at subsequent SAC Meeting(s) - during SAC Overview?

  36. Other Important Developments in SAC • Pen Pal Club (set up by 4 SBs in R10) • SLTW ppt will be enhanced by the SLTW Committee – to be shared to all Sections and SBs • SAC is recommending to RAB such that to recommend to Sections to foster greater relationship with their SBs – perhaps one criteria for Best Section Award will be based on this.

  37. Pen Pal Club of IEEE R10 • SET UP BY 4 SBs: • UPVCE, Gujarat • JMI, Delhi • NUCES, Karachi • BUPT, Beijing • International Fraternity of IEEE R10 Students • To establish a convenient communication channels via Internet to enhance communication & Co-ooperation among SBs and student members • To explore common interests • To improve English skills • Go to www.r10ieeepals.org

  38. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION

  39. RSAC Discussions in San Francisco • Guidelines/Manuals for SB Officers • Academic Calendars between the Regions • Recommend Foster Relationship between Sections and SBs • Mechanism for RSAC/RSR Training in the SAC Committee • GRSR and RSR for Each Region

  40. Guidelines/Manuals for SB Officers • SLTW ppt • Do we send this Info of the Branch Office to new SBs? Yes (See Student CD) • SB Officer Handbook • Q&A Type of Manual (this is not available yet) • Igor (R9) to champion this issue

  41. Academic Calendars between the Regions • Different academic calendars among regions in Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere but also among the different countries • Extend the period of application especially for Society based contest • Action Item for RSAC 8, 9 and 10 – to identify the school/college dates

  42. Recommend Foster Relationship between Sections, Chapters and SBs • Award to Sections supporting SBs activities (to reccommend) • Sections should have Sections Student Representative (Section SR) • Section and Branch Interactions (organized by Marco and John – get it from the Section Congress website) • Proposal -> For Large and Small Section Awards – make a criteria for interactions between Sections and SBs as a major criteria • Some Inputs from RSRs

  43. GRSR and RSR for Each Region • RSR should be an Undergraduate rather than a graduate • Create a GRSR from GSM • SAC Committee will consist of RSAC, GRSR and RSR and also GOLD

  44. Some Important Points to Note • 55% of IEEE Members have been IEEE Student Member-> SAC is thus important • RAB has approved USD1,000 per Region matching money for student promotional items • We can get this money if Region support 50% of it. Write to Laura that we wish to print USD1,000 worth of T-shirts for R10 Student Congress (request has to come from the Regional Treasurer).
