BUET WIE Student Branch Affinity Group is pleased to announce the successful completion of outreach program organized for pre-university students held at Holy Cross College on October 26 2018.
We were overwhelmed by the huge response and the enthusiasm of the participants forced us to carry out the
workshop in more detailed way. A total number of 50 students, divided into 10 groups, attended the program.
We cordially thank the instructor Saraf Mahnaz, Chairperson, BUET WIE SB AG for conducting the workshop. We
also thank our volunteers for their supportive attitude that made the workshop more appealing to the youngsters.
In the first session of the workshop a short speech was given on the outstanding contribution of women in science
and technology to motivate the students and to grow their interest in this field. Then the students were instructed to develop a Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) counter . The instructor gave the participants step by step instructions on each part of the analog circuit. All 10 teams successfully completed making a BCD counter.
We would also like to thank the Principal Sister Shikha Gomes and the teachers of Holy Cross College for giving us the opportunity to motivate the fresh minds to engineering profession and give them a practical vision of the theory they have learnt in their textbook.
