dJubileet - Lunchföreläsning med FRA

dJubileet and D-Dagen are proud to present our first lunch lecture together! The lunch lecture will be hosted by FRA. If you're wondering who they are or what they do, they have been kind enough to introduce themselves.

Here's what FRA has to say:

What is it like to work with technology development at one of Sweden's most secretive agencies? FRA is a regular workplace - yet entirely unique. FRA works with signal intelligence and cybersecurity. We are a civilian agency that is part of Sweden's intelligence service. The agency contributes to protecting Sweden and Swedish interests by providing unique information about important foreign affairs to our clients. The technical department at FRA develops many of the solutions needed to carry out our operations. Much of what we need cannot be found anywhere else - our technical range spans from normal IT operations to advanced signal processing and supercomputers. We are currently in an expansion phase; FRA is growing and will continue to do so in the coming years. This means that the technical department is also growing, and we are therefore looking for individuals who want to work with us. Come and let us tell you more about how the work at the technical department of one of Sweden's most secretive agencies functions.

During the lunch lecture, food will be provided, of course. However, you will need to register in advance if you want to have food. Food registration is open NOW and can be done through this form.

When: September 28th at 12:00 PM Where: V1 How: Like this

Data to Sjöslaget is back! 🔥

Once again, we're heading out on the water fully dressed in cerise. This year Sjöslaget will take place from October 16th to 18th, Monday through Wednesday.

This event is for D-chapter students (and others who want to join) to find people to share cabins with, see who else is coming, and just chat about Sjöslaget 2023!

What can you do at Sjöslaget? Onboard the boat, there are plenty of fun activities to enjoy. For example, you can buy cheap alcohol completely legally. There are also things like karaoke competitions and live DJs onboard. You also have half a day in Tallinn to explore the city or go straight to Super Alko 🍾.

How much does it cost? The price usually amounts to around 1000 SEK per person (depending on the cabin). This price includes a hearty lunch buffet (with wine), access to some events, and lots of fun.
