Members,
There is an initiative being pushed forward by SALD (That's the UT organization that oversees student organizations like IEEE) to have organization members be officially registered with their organization. To fulfill our obligation to SALD, we have created a very simple Form for active Members to fill out. We will collect names until approximately Nov. 20 2009 and then submit the data to SALD. Only Members officially registered through the University in this way can 'officially' be considered Members of the IEEE Branch.
Please go to http://ieee.ece.utexas.edu/memberform to submit your information. We pledge not to use any information submitted for anything other than registering with SALD.

The Center for Commercialization of Electric Technologies (CCET) and IEEE Region 5 are sponsoring the Second Annual Student Design Competition. The topic for the 2009-2010 school year is Practical Solar Photovoltaic DC Control and Supply System.

This second annual competition asks students, including graduate students, to submit a paper design for a direct current (DC) energy delivery system intended for existing homes or small businesses with solar panels or energy storage devices. The system will be designed to safely and efficiently use DC power in a residence. The schedule for this contest is set to encourage submissions to be part of senior design projects for Fall 2009, but is also open to all student and graduate student members of IEEE Region 5. Cash awards totaling $5000 will be granted. In addition, the winning student, or team of students, will be invited to receive trophies and cash prizes at the annual Region 5 IEEE meeting (travel expenses paid by CCET), and may participate as a paid consultant in an industry project to develop a working prototype and possibly to develop the device into a commercial product.

Deadlines:

• September 30, 2009: end of registration period (all teams must be registered)
• January 31, 2010: deadline for submission of design papers; contest designs should be submitted electronically in PDF format with copies to both the CCET and IEEE Region 5 representatives
• March 1, 2010: CCET judges announce winners
• April 7-8, 2010: winners receive paid trip to the IEEE Region 5 Meeting for awards presentation
