IEEE NSU Student Branch, WIE Affinity Group

IEEE NSU Student Branch, WIE Affinity Group A sector of benefits, eligibility, and other opportunities for professional and student members of IEEE Women in Engineering. We're recruiting!

IEEE WIE NSU, an Affinity Group from NSU Student Branch, dedicated to promoting women and inspiring girls from North South University and around the world to follow their academic interests to a career in IT and engineering. This affinity group was established in 20th June 2016 and since then its members have been actively working on their events and projects. Historically in Bangladesh (and also in NSU), the female presence has been low in science and engineering subjects. So we have been working hard to encourage, engage and motivate the female students through IEEE opportunities for developing their skills in IT and engineering for professional career development. At the end of July 2016, the number of IEEE Student members in IEEE WIE Affinity Group NSU Student Branch had reached 50. We have conducted our first ever event on MATLAB Workshop placed at our home ground NSU which had immense response from the students as participants. We look forward to organize many other events on tech and workshop pretty soon. History of WIE Bangladesh Section:
2011 is the first full calendar year for women in Engineering (WIE) Affinity Group, IEEE Bangladesh Section. At the end of 2012, the number of female IEEE student members was above 80. At the end of 2014, the number of female IEEE member was around 56, graduate female IEEE member was 14, the undergraduate female IEEE student member was higher in number than in 2013. Due to the massive campaigning from the WIE affinity group, IEEE Bangladesh Section, most of the existing female student members of IEEE responded to our call and actively participated in the WIE activities in 2014 and 2015. Their huge interest and participation in the WIE activities clearly indicate that we have achieved an expected growth of the WIE affinity Group’s membership. In 2015 WIE AG, IEEE Bangladesh Section had 6 members, 25 graduate members and 191 student members. Up to June 2016 WIE AG, IEEE BD section has 4 student branches (4 more student branches are on the process of formation) with more than 400 members across the country. IEEE WIE is led by a diverse body of elected and appointed volunteer members. The governance structure includes boards for operational areas as well as bodies representing members in the 45 Societies and technical Councils and ten worldwide geographic regions. The WIE Committee (WIEC) is responsible for facilitating the development of programs and activities that:

- promote the entry into and the retention of women in engineering programs
- enhance the career advancement of women in the profession
- promote IEEE membership and retention of IEEE women members.

"আমার ভাইয়ের রক্তে রাঙানো একুশে ফেব্রুয়ারি
আমি কি ভুলিতে পারি?
ছেলেহারা শত মায়ের অশ্রু-গড়া এ ফেব্রুয়ারি
আমি কি ভুলিতে পারি?"
-কবি: আব্দুল গাফফার চৌধুরী

আমাদের মাতৃভাষা বাংলা, যা আমাদের সংস্কৃতি ও ঐতিহ্যের ধারক, আমাদের পরিচয়ের মূল ভিত্তি; যা আমাদের কানে মায়ের কোলপাথা সুরের মতোই মধুর। এই বাংলা ভাষা সালাম, বরকত, রফিক, জব্বার এবং শফিউরসহ অগণিত শহীদের রক্ত ও আত্মত্যাগের বিনিময়ে অর্জিত এক অমূল্য উপহার। ১৯৫২ সালের সেই অদম্য আন্দোলনকারীদের সাহসিকতার ফসল এই ভাষা, যারা নিজেদের মাতৃভাষায় কথা বলার অধিকার আদায়ে অস্ত্রের সামনে বুক পেতে দিয়েছিলেন।

দেশপ্রেম ও ভাষার প্রতি মমত্ববোধের এক অনন্য দৃষ্টান্ত স্থাপনকারী সেই সকল বীর সন্তানদের প্রতি বিনম্র শ্রদ্ধা জানিয়ে, “আইট্রিপলই নর্থ সাউথ বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় উইমেন ইন ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং এফিনিটি গ্রুপ” সকলকে জানাচ্ছে আন্তর্জাতিক মাতৃভাষা দিবসের শুভেচ্ছা।

"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head.
If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart."
- Nelson Mandela

Our mother language, Bengali, which is the bearer of our culture and heritage; the core foundation of our identity; which sounds as sweet to our ears as a mother's lullaby. The Bengali language is an invaluable gift, earned through the blood and supreme sacrifice of countless martyrs, including Salam, Barkat, Rafiq, Jabbar, and Shafiur. It is a blessing earned by the bravery of those indomitable protestors of 1952, who laid down their chests in front of weapons to reclaim the right to speak their mother tongue.

Paying our humble respect to all those brave men and women who set a unique example of patriotism and devotion to their language, “IEEE North South University Women In Engineering Affinity Group” wishes everyone a Happy International Mother Language Day.

The crescent moon ushers in a month of dawn-to-dusk fasting and nights filled with prayer. It presents a period of fasting, prayer, and reflective days of profound meaning. It focuses on personal growth and the deepening of faith in a person’s character and behavior. It reminds them to exercise patience, express gratitude, and show understanding, helping them build stronger relationships with others whether within their families, with friends, or in society.

Unity and empathy are also highlighted during Ramadan.
As a result of sharing, caring, and supporting one another, people are able to gain valuable lessons that enrich their journey throughout the month. IEEE NSU Student Branch, WIE Affinity Group wishes you and your loved ones a month of peace, reflection, and togetherness.

May this Ramadan bring calmness to minds, clarity of thought, and blessings of growth and achievement to all.
Ramadan Kareem ✨

This affinity group was established in 20th June 2016 and since then its members have been actively working on their events and projects. Historically in Bangladesh (and also in NSU), the female presence has been low in science and engineering subjects. So we have been working hard to encourage, engage and motivate the female students through IEEE opportunities for developing their skills in IT and engineering for professional career development.
