Members of the UNM IEEE Student Branch attended the Raising Stars 2023 conference and the CES 2023 in Las Vegas. Here is a presentation covering their attendance to both events as well as their plans for the year.
The IEEE Albuquerque Section extends its congratulations to the students attending these events and encourages all EE students to join ad participate in the UNM Student Branch.
NMT IEEE recently held a Drone Lab, where members were given the opportunity to build, modify and compete with their own racing drones. We had two events – a race and an accuracy competition. At the end of the night, the member with the highest combined score in these events got to take home their drone. All members seemed to have a great time, and NMT IEEE looks forward to hosting another similar lab next semester, potentially with even more drones.
NMT IEEE is also thankful to both the Albuquerque section for their continual support, and the NMT Student Government Association for helping fund this event.
