ECIF is a new initiative that was approved at Joint Council (Spring 2011) that will benefit you and the entire Engineering Community at Waterloo. Both A-Society and B-Society made an initial joint invest of $10,000 dollars into the fund. A percent of student fees each term will be allocated to projects selected by a committee. Projects selected to be funded by ECIF include:
- Improvements to the facilities of the Engineering Society
- Supporting and improving both new and existing services of the Society.
- Improving the facilities and services of affiliates (including The Iron Warrior)
- Other projects that the Committee feels fulfill the purpose of the Fund
Examples of recent approved proposals were music equipment, speakers for CPH Foyer, EWB E-Waste statue, and bike repair stations to be set up outside CPH. The ECIF committee is looking for new ideas and initiatives for this fall. If you have an idea for a capital improvement project, submit a proposal in the form under services at engsoc.uwaterloo.ca.
