Hello Chapter! The Study Board is looking for feedback on the fall courses in the first year of the Computer Science master. We're having a meeting with the leadership of the program soon, and would love to hear your opinions on the courses so we can improve the courses and the program.

We have created a google form which you can find here.

Hello Computer Science students! Do YOU want to partake in arranging pride events and a float for Stockholm Pride? 🌈In that case, recruitment is now open for Project Pride ✨🌱

The application form will close on the 8:th of February and interviews will be carried out continously!

Hi Chapter!

The Educational Office at the EECS school has tasked the Chapter Board to find out how the chapter feels about their availability and the flow of information before the next meeting.

It contains questions regarding appointment booking versus drop-in, whether you want digital alternatives to physical meetings and whether the programme web works well.

It would be appreciated if you could take a minute to answer this survey: dsekt.se/kansli-formular

Hello chapter!❤️

The studies have begun for period 3 and we now need master representatives as well as international student representatives who are dedicated to evaluating and improving the computer science program. Being a master/international student representative means that you represent your master/international student group, both at the Study Board's meetings (a half-hour lunch meeting every two weeks) and when we go to link meetings.

"What is a link meeting?", you are probably wondering. Link meetings are meetings that take place once per term, where the year representatives meet those responsible for the courses and the computer program as a whole. Where we have a huge chance to influence and improve our program!

Another important task for the representatives is to complain about courses, consume our fika budget and go to our Teambuildings!🤩

So, fill out the form and APPLY!

Welcome to a lunch lecture with the consulting company Etimo! Come and listen as Philip and Björn from Etimo talk more about the topic "What does it mean to be a consultant". 🤩🤩🤩

They will outline what types of assignments there are, what is expected of a consultant, what support you get from your colleagues and how the consultant role differs from employment at a product company. Etimo works to develop customized digital web and cloud solutions for its customers, which are everything from large companies to start-ups.

You are warmly welcome to listen in and meet Etimo!

Hello everyone!

Here’s some important information from the board.

TL;DR:

The board is currently understaffed and it will be difficult for us to keep up with all the work. Please be well in advance with items you need help with.

The extra chapter meeting is on the 9th of February and a number of important items will be dealt with, including a major budget revision.

The chapter would like to have “frackband”. Send your suggestions to drek@datasektionen.se.

Few people on the board

The first thing is that at the time of writing we have four vacancies on the Board (Secretary, Vice treasurer, Board member for student social affairs and Board member forsStudent environment and equality).

This means that the board may have longer response times than usual and that we will not be able to focus on the issues normally dealt with by the vacant posts. Another consequence is that less will be done on other fronts as the rest of the board needs to take up the slack. So please be out in good time if you have matters that need to be dealt with.

Extra-SM

We will have an extra chapter meeting on the 9th of February where important motions and a major budget revision will be dealt with.

The motions that will be dealt with are

• Motion to review the acoustics of META
• Motion regarding CPR training for elected officials and chapter members
• Motion regarding the election process for members of the Union Council
• Motion regarding budget for Blums

Elections for many important positions will be held at the Extra-SM. In addition to the Board vacancies, elections will be held for several important positions,

• Programme responsible student
• Auditor
• Student Safety Officer
• Speaker.

As this is an extra chapter meeting, no other motions will be considered. Notice will be sent separately.

Frackband

During the Glögg-SM, “frackband” for the Section came up as another issue. There were various options presented during the Glögg-SM but none of the proposals were preferred by the CM.

“Frackband” are mainly used when representing the chapter in external contexts. Therefore, the design should be in accordance with our graphic profile.

Please send your suggestions to drek@datasektionen.se.

Hello Chapter!

Are you interested in attending exciting business events, finding summer jobs or a place to write your master’s thesis, or generally curious about work life? Then we strongly recommend registering as a substitute for Studs 2023! There are usually a few members of Studs who are unable to attend an event, which can provide you the opportunity of going in their stead! In addition to getting to know the company and their offices, each event offers fun activities, tasty food and refreshing beverages! You can also upload your CV so that the companies whose events you attend more easily can contact you regarding summer jobs, master’s thesis opportunities, employment etc!

The registration is not binding and is open throughout the spring term, so what are you waiting for? Register now at https://dsekt.se/inhoppare ! (But the later you register the more events you risk missing ;) )

Hi everyone! Prylmångleriet will hold its first sale of the year this Friday. We will be outside META during lunch.

D-22: The D-22 (class enrolling in 2022) patch will be sold.

METAspexet: New patches and stickers will be sold. Overalls: Message me if you want to reserve overalls.

Good continuation, chapter!

• Programme responsible student (PAS)
• Statutory auditor
• Speaker
• Quapellmaster (project leader for the preservation of Metaspexets music)
• Vice Treasurer

Nominate someone you know, someone you're sitting next to, or maybe in front of on https://val.datasektionen.se/ now!!!

Have a whaley pleasant day, Chair of the Election Committee

Hi chapter ❤️!

Discord event: https://discord.com/events/687747877736546335/1062318498145108008

In accordance with our statutes §4.4 Brådskande ärenden and §4.8 D-rektiv I hereby issue a D-rektiv.

The D-rective reads as follows:

Life can feel monotonous sometimes, dare to try new things. Worst case scenario is that you're more satisfied with your previous existance.

It has been a great year with many advancements, we've had a year without restrictions, the spring ball finally got arranged after being cancelled two years in a row, we've had the biggest D-Dagen ever, an epic reception, fantastic educational monitoring and good progress on external relations. There's a lot more, the Chapter is evolving rapidly.

Thanks to everyone that has made the Chapter to what it is during 2022! I would also like to dedicate a special thanks to all the officials of The Chapter that have evolved and worked for Konglig Datasektionen during 2022, the pleasure of working for and with you has been on my side. Finally i wish all the Officials a good 2023, I know that you're capable of great deeds.

See you on the roads/in the tracks/hills — David Puustinen, Chairperson 2022

Today, we bring two very important votes related to our official Discord server, Konglig Datasektionen. We would greatly appreciate your voice in the matter.

If you are not already a member on the Discordserver, you can join it through: http://dsekt.se/discord

🗳️ 1. Course Channels: Forum vs Text

Do you think we should stick with our current course channels or switch back to normal plain text channels?

Vote here: https://forms.gle/maSCaoLJ9iHvY6GY9

We will implement the winning solution during the Christmas break.

🗳️ 2. Ping-roles and notifications

Do you feel you get pinged to much on this server? Do you feel adding ping-roles would cripple the chapter's ability to reach its students?

Vote on the issue of implementing ping-roles here: https://forms.gle/fnWrUH3gXmqopwoC7
