Status of Student Activities in R10Positive Notes

Largest number of Student branches

Enthusiastic Branch counselors

Vibrant student branches

Many sections with more student members than full members

Status Student activities in R10Alarming facts

Maximum number of dormant student branches

Student membership fluctuations

Minimal Reporting by student branches

Lack of networking among student members

Special Programs of R10 SAC

Do You

• Want to be connected?• Want more value for IEEE membership ?• Want to be more involved ?• Want a smooth succession of officers in your

SB?• Want the activities to continue after you leave? • Want to be connected with your local section? • Want a fare share of money from the section?

R10 Global Integrated Network of IEEE students

2008 Initiative

R-10 GINI

GINI Time line

2008: Few Pilot sections to be identified , start coordination activities and establish

HUBs2009: Addition of new sections-Expansion of Pilot projects2010: Establishing R10 GINI at Council level2011: Expansion of R10 GINI2012: Complete establishment of R10 GINI

Hyper Active GOLD/ student volunteers required !!!

Region 10 still has 25% Inactive Branches

Successful establishment of

IEEE LINK in Kerala

IEEE Student Activities - Structure

Disadvantages

Top Down Approach- Old Fashioned Network ModelNetwork among peers – local and global- very little scope - extensively time consuming process Benefits for a member is confined to the entity (SB) to which he or she belongs Lacks lateral knowledge sharing processIncrease in inactive student branches Difficult to tap new potential educational institutions, as no system exists

R10 Global Integrated Network of IEEE

R10 GINI – Global Integrated Network of IEEE students

Five Year initiative to integrate all the SBs in Region 10

Based on the successful prototype of IEEE Kerala Section –LINK R10

The Initiative was formally launched at Region 10 Student Congress held at Chennai, India in January 2008

Reasons for R10 GINIStay connected: Networking the students, around Region 10Improve the SB coordination at Regional level– Creation of new SBs – Sustain existing SBs, we still have 25% inactive

SBs Add Benefit to IEEE Student Membership within Region 10Large potential for growth in Student Activities in Region 10Low conversion rate of student members to GOLD membersSuccessful Implementation of Link in Kerala

R10-GINI : Vision

GINI shall act as a catalyst in networking and sustaining the student branches of Asia- Pacific, and in increasing and adding value to IEEE student membership.

R10-GINI : Mission

Act as a conjunctive body to encompass the Student Branches coming under its geographical span

Increase networking and add value to IEEE student membership

Reactivate sick student branches/add new student branches

Proposed Structure – New Prototype

Advantages of the new prototype

Exponential Growth of the Network– Setting up a similar network is easy– The exponential growth in student membership,

branches and student activitiesLateral knowledge sharing is made a realityAdd benefits to the membership– The reach of membership benefits not limited to an SB

Cordial relationships among Student Branches– Mutual help in sustaining as active Student Branches

Increase the student involvement in IEEEConverting higher percentage of student members to GOLD

Region 10 GINI - proposed

Pilot SectionsInclude more pilot sections graduallyBuild a full fledged network within a span of 5 years

R10-GINI : Areas of Concern

Stabilizing IEEE Offices and the Volunteers– Ensure the connectivity of Student Branch officials– Try to bridge the gap with the proper transition of leadership

Retention of members Special effort to address the concerns of new members Resolve issues of members (spectrum delivery, branch related issues)

Membership Drives Membership Drives in Inactive Branches

IEEE Awareness Visit potential Institutions for new Student Branches

Branch Counselor – Motivate the Branch Counselor, Institution Management Issues

Many more…………

R10- GINI: Mentor, Pilot Sections

R10 GINI Mentor Section– IEEE Kerala Section, India (LINK)

R10 GINI Pilot Sections– IEEE Australia & IEEE New Zealand– IEEE Delhi Section, India– IEEE Hyderabad Section, India– IEEE Karachi Section, Pakistan– IEEE Madras Section, India

R10 GINI : Organization

R10-GINI has a three tier structure

– Level 1: R10 GINI Execom R10 SAC, RSR, Mentor Section SAC, one Pilot Section SAC,

Four Student Volunteers (from GINI section student representatives), R10 GINI Coordinator

– Level 2: Section GINI Execom Section SAC, GINI Section Student Representative, Hub

Leaders

– Level 3: Hub Level Team Hub Leader (SB), Hub Leader Branch Counselor, Branch

representatives

R10 GINI : Connectivity

R10-GINI has established a website– www.gini.r10sac.org

GINI online meetings conducted regularly

GINI will organize face to face meeting for the R10 GINI Excom once in a year.

http://www.gini.r10sac.org/

R10 GINI- Major Achievements

Networking among section SBs and Regional SBs on an exponential rise.Creditable conversion of sick SBs to active SBsFormation of new SBsMajor increase in Student Branch ActivitiesEffective Utilization of Regional FundsMore value for IEEE student membershipGINI constitution approved in many pilot sections

R10-GINI : Pilot Section Activities

GINI Activities in Pakistan SBs 28/31– Reactivated 6 SBs, formed 3 new, 5 in pipe line– GINI Awareness Sessions at SBs– Discussions with sick branches to identify the problems

faced– Formation of GINI-Pakistan-Execom– IEEE awareness and campaign at potential educational

institutions– Held Section Student Congress (Karachi) in July 2008,

Pakistan Student Congress, August 2008– Conducted more IEEE, GINI awareness sessions


GINI Activities in New Zealand 1/2Leadership workshop, jointly conducted University of Auckland and nearby AUT IEEE SB in May 2008

– Attendance of 25 from each university– AUT was able to obtain enough signatures to officially apply

to open a SB, a feat almost 5 years in the making
