IEEE SB Universiti Putra Malaysia, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, UPM has successfully conducted their annual EE Games event in 2018.
The event had 161 participants from the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, UPM, as well as a special guest, Dr. Hafiz Rashidi b Harun @ Ramli. The participants included first year students and as such they were introduced to IEEE by the IEEE SB UPM President, Gorakanage Amesh Eromal Gomes.
The event took place over the span of two consecutive days:
The first day had an ice-breaking session between the seniors and juniors as well as an array of ‘Station Games’ to have the participants interact with each other in ways that they don’t usually do daily. Next, we had a tournament-styled bracket matches for badminton and futsal, played between the girls and boys respectively.
The second day featured dodgeball matches. Lastly, a dinner session was held with all the participants. A handful of the participants also performed on stage during the dinner. The night ended with a certificate giving ceremony and group photos.
The event has successfully given the new first year students an opportunity to meet and get to know their seniors, and vice-versa. We sincerely hope that this will spark more interactions between students segregated by yearly batches.
IEEE SB UPM would like to thank the second year students of the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, UPM for their voluntary effort and support to make this event possible.
