Upsilon Pi Epsilon - DePaul University (Delta UPE)

nor of wearing the UPE regalia at the graduation ceremony, which will definitely set you apart from the other graduates.

-Scholarships

Some more apparent and immediate benefits are the scholarships that can be won based on extraordinary achievements in scholarship; the UPE scholarships are funded by two companies, namely Microsoft and IBM. The local UPE chapter will be hosting a series of seminars and invited speakers, where students can get exposure to new research directions; think of this as a great opportunity to setup a valuable network of people that could help you later in your career. UPE members will most likely be among the first to learn about internships, jobs, and research opportunities within CDM and other institutions.

-ACM Student Power Package

In addition to the benefits of the UPE membership, ACM offers the "ACM Student Power Package" (a $42 value) free to newly inducted UPE members, which includes a personal subscription to ACM's Digital Library, on-line subscriptions to Communications of the ACM and Crossroads, a free "acm.org" email forward address and entry in ACM's Membership Directory, full access to the ACM Career Resource Center, and selected free courses in the Professional Development (PD) Centre (http://pd.acm.org/). Please check your email accounts and notify us if you did not receive this information.

-Graduation recognition

When graduating you will have the honor cords to wear as well as the carat-clad keypin. Honor cords were handed out to graduates who were walking in the graduation ceremony. If you did not receive yours, please contact us.

-Activities

And finally, imagine the great opportunity to share your experience with other outstanding students at CDM or even other universities; you could plan different student activities, such as creating a framework for students to find mentors, or setting up a forum for students to give presentations about topics they are working on at work or school. The benefits and rewards are too many to list here, and they can only be discovered if you involve yourselves in the UPE. Much of the Delta chapter of the Upsilon Pi Epsilon honor society will be directed towards research and higher educational opportunities. We would like to partner with other schools on their research activities whether through working on projects together or hosting research seminars featuring research from other universities. The activities are up to the interests of the students.
