The IEEE Student Branch Workshop was held on 11 December (Wed) in the 11th floor conference room of Hokkaido University.

This workshop is an independent student presentation part of the Hokkaido Young Professionals Workshop held by IEEE Sapporo YP every year. This year was the second attempt.

In addition to Hokkaido University SB and Sapporo YP, Kansai YP, Kansai University SB and Muroran Institute of Technology SB co-organised the meeting.

The SB Wordshop and YP Workshop were held at the meeting.

In the SB Workshop, the Hokkaido University SB and Kansai University SB gave talks on SB and student life, as well as presentations on their research.
In addition to the presentations, group work and mini-games were organised by the Hokkaido University SB.

In the YP Workshop, the winners of the YP Award gave lectures on their research topics.
We also had a valuable opportunity to participate in a tour of the research facilities at Hokkaido University.

It was a great opportunity for students and researchers who are geographically distant from each other to interact with each other and to listen to lectures by outstanding YP researchers.
We are very happy to have this opportunity.

On November 3, 2024, at the Hokkaido Section Joint Convention of Institutes of Electrical and Information Engineers held at Hokkaido University, the following three student branches jointly organized a student exchange party.

• IEEE Hokkaido University Student Branch
• IEEE Muroran Institute of Technology Student Branch
• IEICE Muroran Institute of Technology Student Branch

Five students from the following universities gave presentations:

• Muroran Institute of Technology
• Hokkaido University of Science
• Hokkaido University
• Chitose Institute of Science and Technology
• Kyoto Institute of Technology

Mr.Saito, Chair of IEEE Hokkaido University Student Branch (HU SB), was in charge of setting up the venue, and Mr.Ishizaki, Treasurer of IEEE HU SB, gave a presentation on the activities of IEEE SB and the advantages of establishing a branch.

Through the presentations and Q&A sessions, we were able to learn about student life in other universities and laboratories, and had a very meaningful time.

The IEEE R10 SYWL Congress was held at the National Olympics Memorial Youth Center from Thursday, August 29 to Sunday, September 1.
M2 Saito and M1 Ishisaki from Hokkaido University SB (HU-SB) participated.

IEEE classifies the world regions geographically, and HU-SB belong to Region 10 (R-10, Asia-Pacific).
In this Congress, about 300 participants from R-10 gathered together and deepened exchanges through various sessions.

In Breakout Sessions, each Student Branch gathered at the same place to listen to lectures and conduct simple activities.
By bringing together people in the same position, we were able to get to know the participants with a sense of intimacy.

In the Poster Session, we introduced about Hokkaido University SB.
Many people were interested in talking to us, and we became more confident in our activities.

We also listened to various lectures on IEEE activities and how to deal with the latest technologies, which we found very interesting.

During the conference, We had dinner with many participants every night.
On the third night, the standing buffet party called “Cultural Night” was held. Music and dance representing each country were performed, and we enjoyed the sense of togetherness by dancing together.

Throughout this Congress, We could experience the joy of interacting with people from various backgrounds.
This is a proof of the broad base of IEEE with its diverse personnel, and it is also a proof that IEEE is a place where people from various backgrounds can interact with each other with a great sense of purpose.
This is a foundation of the wide range of people who belong to IEEE and the active exchange of opinions among the participants with great goals in mind.
We both would like to give back to the people around us what we have gained from this experience.

IEEE SBLTW 2024 was held at National Olympics Memorial Youth Center on Thursday, August 29.
M2 Saitoh and M1 Ishisaki from Hokkaido University SB participated.

In the morning, Dr. Akihiko K. Sugiyama gave a Student Activities Workshop.
First, Dr. Sugiyama gave a lecture titled “Easy to Read and Engaging Presentation,” in which participants learned how to create easy-to-understand slides for research presentations. In the group work session, participants used the slides they had prepared in advance and discussed how to modify them to make them easier to understand. Finally, each group summarized the results of their discussions and gave a presentation, receiving feedback from Dr. Sugiyama for each group.
The lessons learned in this session will be of great help to the participants in creating slides in the future.

In the afternoon, the poster session was held as part of the Student Branch Activity Report. In the session of the Hokkaido University SB, we explained our research and SB activities. Through discussions with various students, We think we were able to obtain good knowledge and inspiration.

Mr. Tanaka from IEEE Hokkaido Univ. Student Branch participated in IEEE Japan YP Study lab 2024 in Sendai on May 18 (Sat).

This event was organized by IEEE Sendai Section Young Professionals Affinity Group (Sendai YP AG) and IEEE Kansai Section Young Professionals Affinity Group (Kansai YP AG). The event aims to improve the skills of engineers and researchers.

In the morning, the lecture on creating a website using Github and ChatGPT was held. In the afternoon, the LaTeX study session using Overleaf was held.
After these sessions , we had a meaningful time sharing information about each chapter’s activities and future plans.

Thank you very much to Sendai YP AG and Kansai YP AG.
