Mission and Vision
Our goal as a community is to alleviate the challenges associated with being a student passionate about improving engineering education in Canada. The Student Lab SIG aims to do this by creating a national network of students that support, collaborate, and learn together as progress in our individual journeys.
Activities and Initiatives
As a community, we engage in different activities to support ourselves academically and personally:
- Regular Meetings: Through our meetings, we have opportunities for check-ins, sharing experiences, discussing challenges, and sharing resources.
- Thematic Discussions: We have themed discussions on topics important to our success as students in EER, such as note-taking strategies, managing references, grant application processes, and setting achievable goals.
- Accountability Club: Whenever one of us needs to focus on an academic task, we run sessions for mutual encouragement and accountability.
- Peer Review: We also occasionally share academic materials such as abstracts, presentations, and proposals, for peer feedback.
- Mentorship: Our group has students in varied stages of their academic journeys, allowing for those more experienced to provide mentorship for new and prospective EER students.
