The Harvard College Engineering Society is a student-run organization at Harvard College aimed at promoting engineering and cross disciplinary collaboration on campus through participating in competitions and working on various engineering projects.

Upcoming Events

  • Introductory meetings. We will be having our HCES intro meetings on Tuesday, 9.18.07 and Wednesday, 9.19.07 from 7-8 PM, at Maxwell Dworkin 319. The 2 meetings are identical and will consist of a brief introduction of club goals, Q&A, an opportunity to meet the club members. Oh, and there will also be food.
  • Freshman Annenberg dinners. These will be an opportunity for freshmen to make contact with upperclassmen and faculty. They will be Tuesday, 9.25.07 and Wednesday, 9.26.07 from 5:30-7:00 PM. Please refer to the calendar for a list of the faculty attending. If you are a freshman, no need to RSVP--just find us at the front of Annenberg.

  • We had updated our goals for the upcoming year.
  • Among other things, we are reviving Women in Computer Science dinners.
  • Talk to Jean Yang (jeanyang [at] fas) if you are interested in non-RoboCup side projects. We are submitting budget proposals for the 2007-2008 academic year.
