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!

Haven't you always wanted to...

• broaden your horizon

• organize fun events
• work together with internationals
• help us to include internationals into our chapter

At our Kick-Off meeting we decide, which projects/events we want to do in P3/P4!

We meet in META and then find an empty seminar room.

On February 9th Extra Chapter Meeting will be held in D1 at 17:30 on Campus Valhallavägen. The reserve date is the 13th of February at Campus Valhallavägen.

Motions dealing with the acoustics in META, CPR training for chapter functionaries and active chapter members, the election process for the Union Council representatives and the budget for Blums will be discussed.

January the 30th the Study Board are holding a meeting at 12:15. There the members will discuss the current courses running this period.

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". 🤩🤩🤩

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.
