ECE Graduate Student AssociationWelcome to the new home page of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Graduate Student Association (ECEGSA)! The ECEGSA is the association for graduate students in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of British Columbia. Our goals are to provide activities and services for ECE graduate students and represent them on their behalf inside and outside of the department.
This website describes our operations, our rules and regulations, and upcoming/ongoing events. Check back often for updates!
Both prospective and current students should find this site useful. If not, or if you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
To contact the department, email help@ece.ubc.ca. You will be assigned a ticket number and your query/question/concern will be forwarded to an appropriate individual. Most inquiries are answered within 24 hours.

The ECEGSA has collaborated with the ECE Department to develop a checklist for students once they are accepted as graduate students. The checklist includes detailed things to consider months before coming to UBC. Check out the complete list here.
Old news items are being kept here.
