Being in EngSci for 4 months, talking with students and faculty, breaking through myself, and actively being engaged, I feel a strong sense of belonging and thus want to leave something/make some changes to such a community I love. Also, there are many quotes that are very classic for engineers or more specifically, EngScis. On the other hand, as a class representative that organizes events for students, I am aware of the inevitable expense on food, room booking, equipment, and so on and wanted to raise money for us Engsci Club to use on students.

 

 

To successfully organize this cross-year fundraising and t-shirt selling event, I had to consider 2 important parts:

• Event logistics in terms of how people order, pay, get t-shirts and be contacted.

• T-shirt themselves in terms of pattern, color, quality, and variety.

 

For the first one, I chose to use only online platforms and to separate ordering and paying because of the complexity of ordering. This way, money flow is kept online, making it easy to access the record and refund.

 

For the later one, I created a poll among students first and designed the t-shirts according to the rankings.

 

As soon as everything is ready, I marketed it both online and before lectures in front of students.
