Engineering Graduate Students Society
The Engineering Graduate Students Society (EGSS) is a student-run organization representing engineering graduate students enrolled in PhD, MASc, and MEng programs on UBC’s Okanagan campus. It’s objectives are to organize academic, social, and professional events and services for students as well as to facilitate communication between the students, the School of Engineering, and the Student Union of UBC Okanagan (UBCSUO).
For information on events and activities, visit the EGSS website and/or follow the EGSS Facebook Page. Any questions or concerns can be addressed to the EGSS by sending them an email.
Annual Engineering Graduate Symposium
The Annual Engineering Graduate Symposium is held annually at UBC’s Okanagan Campus. Attending graduate students are given the opportunity to showcase their research in oral presentation or poster format, with both options being judged and prizes awarded.
Anyone interested in volunteering or organizing the upcoming Symposium is encouraged to connect with EGSS.
