This year\, the IEEE Lebanese University Student Branch is pr oud to host an engaging IEEE Day event at the Lebanese University Faculty of Engineering – Hadath Campus on October 13th.\n\nThe event aims to bri ng together students\, faculty members\, and engineering enthusiasts throu gh interactive technical activities\, competitions\, hands-on demonstratio ns\, and social experiences. The event will showcase a wide range of techn ology fields\, including Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, Competitive Progra mming (CP)\, Computer Vision (CV)\, Data Engineering\, Software Developmen t\, PCB Design\, Robotics\, Embedded Systems\, and Internet of Things (IoT ). Participants will have the opportunity to explore practical engineering projects\, interact with IEEE members\, test their skills through friendl y competitions\, and discover learning roadmaps that can guide them in dev eloping their technical interests.\n\nTo make the event more interactive a nd engaging\, attendees will be divided into competing teams. Throughout t he day\, teams will participate in different technical challenges\, games\ , competitions\, and activities\, earning stars as points based on their p erformance and participation. At the end of the event\, the team with the largest number of stars will be declared the winner. The winning team will receive a special prize box containing IEEE gadgets and IEEE-themed gifts \, adding a competitive and memorable element to the IEEE Day experience.\ n\nA dedicated Hardware Zone will be organized in collaboration with Elect roslab\, featuring electronic components\, IoT boards\, sensors\, PCBs\, c ircuits\, and robotics projects. The zone will also include interactive ga mes and hands-on activities related to electronics\, embedded systems\, an d robotics. In addition\, vouchers will be provided to participants for pu rchasing electronic devices and components from Electroslab\, giving stude nts the opportunity to benefit from the event beyond the campus and furthe r explore electronics and engineering projects.\n\nThe event will also hig hlight IEEE membership and the Women in Engineering (WIE) initiative\, enc ouraging students to learn more about IEEE\, its opportunities\, and its r ole in professional development and community building. IEEE and WIE-theme d stickers and other materials will be distributed to attendees to further promote IEEE and its values. The event will also include a Breast Cancer Awareness activity in collaboration with Al Beqaa Hospital\, since our cel ebration coincides with the breast cancer awareness day. The initiative wi ll focus on raising awareness about breast cancer\, emphasizing the import ance of prevention and early detection\, and informing participants about the availability of free breast examinations provided through Al Beqaa Hos pital. An AI-based breast cancer detection model will also be demonstrated to highlight how artificial intelligence and engineering can contribute t o healthcare and support early detection.\n\nBeyond the technical activiti es\, the event will incorporate various fun and social activities designed to create an enjoyable and welcoming atmosphere for both IEEE members and non-members. These activities will encourage students to interact\, socia lize\, build connections\, and strengthen the sense of community within th e Faculty of Engineering. Music\, games\, interactive challenges\, and oth er entertainment activities will run alongside the technical booths\, allo wing participants to combine learning with recreation while contributing t o their teams’ overall star count.\n\nThrough this event\, we aim to cre ate a dynamic environment where students can learn\, experiment\, compete\ , socialize\, and discover new opportunities in engineering and technology to encourage students to join the IEEE larger community through the IEEE membership. The team-based competition and reward system will encourage ac tive participation throughout the day\, while the technical\, healthcare\, and social activities will provide a diverse experience for all attendees .\n\nUltimately\, the event seeks to strengthen the IEEE community at the Lebanese University\, encourage new students to become involved in IEEE\, and promote innovation\, collaboration\, healthy competition\, and engagem ent across different fields of study.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Just Fajita\n\nA genda: \nAgenda – IEEE Day 2026\n\n9:00 AM – Event Kickoff\n\n-\nOpeni ng and introduction to IEEE Day\n\n-\nIntroduction to the IEEE Student Bra nch and IEEE opportunities\n\n-\nFormation of competing teams\n\n-\nExplan ation of the star-based competition and prize system\n\n-\nOpening of info rmation and competition booths:\n\n-\nArtificial Intelligence (AI)\n\n-\nC omputer Vision (CV)\n\n-\nCompetitive Programming (CP)\n\n-\nData Engineer ing\n\n-\nSoftware Development\n\n-\nPCB Design and Robotics\n\n10:00 AM – Hardware & Electronics Zone\n\n-\nHardware demonstrations and interact ive displays\n\n-\nIoT boards\, sensors\, PCBs\, electronic circuits\, and robotics projects\n\n-\nElectroslab games and hands-on electronics activi ties\n\n-\nTeam challenges and activities to earn stars\n\n-\nDistribution of Electroslab vouchers for purchasing electronic devices and components\ n\nThroughout the Day – Team Challenges & Social Activities\n\n-\nIntera ctive technical competitions\n\n-\nFun games and challenges\n\n-\nSocial a nd team-building activities\n\n-\nStars awarded to teams based on particip ation and performance\n\n-\nIEEE and WIE engagement activities\n\n-\nIEEE- themed stickers and giveaways\n\n12:00 PM – Lunch & Social Break\n\n-\nL unch and refreshments\n\n-\nNetworking and social interaction between part icipants\n\n-\nInformal team activities\n\n12:30 PM – Music & Entertainm ent Zone\n\n-\nLive musical activities and performances\n\n-\nFun and inte ractive social activities\n\n-\nTechnical booths and team competitions con tinue in parallel\n\n-\nContinued opportunities for teams to earn stars\n\ nThroughout the Event – Breast Cancer Awareness Activity\n\n-\nBreast ca ncer awareness and prevention campaign\n\n-\nInformation about the importa nce of early detection\n\n-\nAwareness initiative in collaboration with Al Beqaa Hospital\n\n-\nInformation regarding free breast examinations\n\n-\ nDemonstration of an AI-based breast cancer detection model\n\n3:30 PM – Final Team Challenge & Star Counting\n\n-\nFinal activities and challenge s\n\n-\nCollection and verification of team stars\n\n-\nAnnouncement of th e final scores\n\n4:00 PM – Closing Ceremony\n\n-\nAnnouncement of the w inning team\n\n-\nAwarding of the IEEE Prize Box\, containing IEEE gadgets and IEEE-themed gifts\n\n-\nClosing remarks\n\n-\nInvitation to join IEEE and participate in future activities\n\n-\nGroup photo\n\nRafiq Hariri Un iversity Campus\, Hadath\, Hadath\, Lebanon\, Lebanon\, 00000 LOCATION:Rafiq Hariri University Campus\, Hadath\, Hadath\, Lebanon\, Leban on\, 00000 ORGANIZER:ranimsalha0@gmail.com SEQUENCE:27 SUMMARY:IEEEDay URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/583542 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>IEEE Day is an annual celebration that hig hlights IEEE&rsquo\;s global impact and its commitment to advancing techno logy\, innovation\, and collaboration.
