After a successful Research Day 2013 (website link here), Research Day 2014 is currently looking to recruit volunteers to complete the organizing committees. We are looking for students who are passionate about team work, interested in developing their set of soft skills, and are willing to make commitments to meet regularly. We usually meet monthly; however, as we get closer to the day of event, we are going to need to meet bi-weekly or even weekly.

The positions available are:

• Administrative committee,co-chair
• Technical committee, co-chair
• Marketing committee, chair

Please CLICK HERE to see the guideline for the roles and responsibilities of each committee. However, please also note that we are working as a team and we may need to help each other as needed.

By joining Research Day 2014 organizing team, you will enjoy working with an enthusiastic team and sharing/expressing your ideas as well as getting trained for organizing bigger events in your future career. You may also want to put this as a volunteer experience on your resume to demonstrate your project management capability, team work ability and leadership skill.

If you would like to join us, please reply to this email by this Friday, Jan. 17, 2:00 PM and kindly indicate your position of interest.
