Description

IMechE NUST Student Chapter organized an orientation session to welcome the freshman batch of mechanical department. This year, the student chapter also provided its platform to other societies of NUST for introducing the freshmen to the technical and highly competitive, fraternal environment of the highest ranking university of Pakistan, as a gesture of goodwill. The societies which joined hands with IMechE NSC included the student chapters of Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), and NUST Society of Mechanical Engineers (NSME).

The event along with the entire membership drive was headed by Mr. Usama Saghir (Sophomore at SEECS), Mr. Shahzaib Asim (Sophomore at SMME), and Ms. Sjaa Mukhtar (Sophomore at SMME), under the leadership of Ms. Sunia Tanweer (Junior at SMME) who acted as the OB coordinator for the event.

The event began at 1100 hours with the Opening Speech by the host, Mr. Raffay Waseem (Sophomore at SMME), who enlightened the audience about the Institution and its various branches all around the globe. The student chair of IMechE NSC, Mr. Saad Shabeer (Junior at SMME), shed further light on the different events and activities organized by the student chapter. He also highlighted that the student chapter had been initiating and completing industrial and research projects for the past four years. The event was continued with orientations by the other societies. The first presentation was by the chapter of ASME, followed by the NUST Society of Mechanical Engineers. The event continued with a recorded video message from IMechE Pakistan's past webmaster, Mr. Syed Mobeen Hussain (SMME 2019 Graduate), for the newly admitted students. The IET student chapter delivered its orientation after the video message. As the clock ticked towards the final hour, IMechE NSC conducted an activity for warming up the fresh brains and aligning them with the thinking criterion of competitive engineers. For this, around 64 freshmen became a part of an activity to improvise a catapult from a limited set of popsicle sticks, rubber bands, a spoon, scotch tape and some thread. The objective was to target the farthest of a series of linearly organized cups. After a heated competition, the results were announced. The event concluded when the winners of the short competition were awarded with prizes by the respectable faculty advisor of IMechE NUST Student Chapter, Dr. Syed Husain Imran Jaffery (Faculty member SMME).
