24.01.2022 Celebrating 3 years of the UC Engineering Society (give or take). It's hard to believe that in just 3 years we've gone from running events where nobody showed to being the UC academic club of the year. We're keen to see what the next 3 years hold for us!

23.01.2022 Congratulations to our former President Bryce Cronin and former Vice-President Saira Ambrose on their graduation this week! Saira delivered the student speech on behalf of the graduating science technology students and Bryce was awarded the Herbert Burton Medal for his outstanding academic results and valuable contribution to the University and wider community. Well done Saira and Bryce and congratulations to the graduating cohort of 2020

17.01.2022 Final speaker is Mia Bueno Mia is a 2nd/3rd year student at UNSW doing B. Software Engineering which has been an unconventional journey because She has been ...super passionate about other roles/activities so uni isn’t always the priority. She is currently the Community Manager for The Creative Element and this organisation is contracted by the RAAF to facilitate Air Force’s Innovation Program, so Mia is managing the community aspect of that in which they support members to develop their ideas into prototypes. Casually, Mia also has been mentoring for Code Like a Girl and have always been involved in various roles that allow me to empower young women through STEM education. See more
