Presentation
You must present at a MUES Board meeting to request approval for the creation of a new student group in FEAS. MUES Board meetings take place every two weeks throughout the academic year. To request a time slot at the next MUES Board meeting, please contact the Vice President Operations. If your request is urgent, you can contact the President to call a special board meeting.
You will be allocated a maximum time slot of 15 minutes at the meeting. The Vice President Operations will provide you with the time and location of your presentation prior to the meeting
Presentation Guidelines
Your pitch/presentation must (at least) address the following:
-
Which engineering demographic does it affect (electrical, chemical, all, etc.)
-
Anticipated operating costs and revenue strategy (if any)?
-
Why do you think there is a need for this group?
-
Can you survive without space?
-
Does this overlap with/conflict with any other student group that already exists?
The presentation must have visual aid (such as PowerPoint or Prezi or a video etc.)
Submissions
The following files must be submitted to the Vice President Operations at least 1 week prior to you allocated time at a MUES Board Meeting:
1) A PowerPoint or Google Slide or a video (some visual aid)
2) A maximum 4 page summary of proposed student group (addressing all the questions above and more). This can be in Word or PDF (printable format) which will be printed and given to the Board members prior to the start of the presentation.
Board Decision
The Board may take up to a week to issue a decision regarding your request. The Board has to take into account several factors such as the need for the group, its long-term feasibility and how it complements existing groups.
