Our O-Week Sign Up and Camp Leader Application Forms are now online!

O-Week

O-Week is on the 22nd-26th of February, and CSESoc needs your help! We need people for things such as setting up, packing up, manning the stall, handing out badges, minding the BBQs, and promoting to first years, in particular events such as camp.

More details and shift options can be found at http://www.csesoc.unsw.edu.au/oweek/signup/

Camp Leaders

Following the success of last year, CSESoc's second annual First Year Camp will be held at the end of Week 3 (19th-21st March) at Wombaroo Adventure Centre.

To help with the running of camp, CSESoc needs a group of dedicated Camp Leaders comprised of CSE students from 2nd year and above. Camp Leaders will be there to help guide groups of First Years, run camp activities as well as just hang out and have fun along with everyone else.

To apply* to be a Camp Leader you must fill out the application form by Saturday, 27 February.

* Applicants must be available for the whole duration of CSE Camp as well as pay for their own ticket. They must also be available for a compulsory Leadership Training session on the afternoon of Friday 5 March (tentative).

Working Groups

Working groups are an integral part of CSESoc and are responsible for directly interacting with the students through events, publications, this website, etc. Each working group is run by a head, and that head is selected by the executive and is part of the working group committee. In 2010, the Working Groups will be Beta, Publicity, Social, SysAdmin, and Tech Events.

We're beginning to form working groups for 2010 and we want you! We're looking for enthusiastic CSESoc members to head up these working groups and we're taking applications from now until 24/11 (5pm), a week after exams. Applications should include any information you would want us to know when evaluating you as a working group head, and should be sent to csesoc@cse.unsw.edu.au.

Working groups are given a bit of autonomy, so applicants should have ideas on they want their team to function. Additionally, applicants should have leadership skills, and the time & know-how to get things done!
