The RESS is the official student society for the University of Regina Faculty of Engineering. The council members are elected every March by engineering students and serve a one-year term.

The RESS has many resources available to its members. One of the services available through our student’s society is academic mentorship. In this program, lower-year students are paired with upper year students who are there to coach them with their experience as an engineering student. We also host the annual Honour Pin Ceremony, recognizing students for their academic honesty and rewarding them with a pin. The pin is to be worn at any suitable time to promote academic honesty and serve as a symbol to keep cheating at bay. Every semester Beef and Pizza is hosted by the RESS to promote students getting together to discuss any academic struggles they may be facing while enjoying some pizza. Before final exams, the RESS hosts final review sessions for the first year’s classes. Should you ever have an academic concern, you are encouraged to contact your VP Academic.

There are many new and traditional social events organized by the RESS each year. These events are a great way to meet other engineering students and have some fun. The events put on every year are Frosh Week, Year 1-4 Reception, Second Year Mug Ceremony, Beerfest, Beer in the Lounge, Engineering Week, and more. Follow us on facebook (Regina Engineering Students’ Society Inc.) or instagram (uofr_engsoc) to find out about our next event or check your uregina email for announcements.

Conferences are hosted every year by WESST, CFES, and other organizations for engineering students to attend. They all promote the development of engineering related skills and provide the opportunity to network with students and industry across the country. Every year there are a number of conferences that the RESS council attends to represent you, the RESS members. There are several opportunities for RESS members to attend these conferences as well. We encourage all under-graduate engineers or other RESS members to apply for financial support for attending conferences. Opportunities to attend conferences are posted on our social media and emailed to students. If you are interested in attending a conference contact this years’ VP External for more information. Please direct any funding questions to this year’s VP Finance.
