About

The ECE Student Advancement Committee (ECESAC) is a group of undergraduate students committed to shaping and improving the student experience within the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UIUC.

We collaborate directly with department leadership to advocate for student needs, organize impactful events, and provide feedback on policies, courses, and culture.

Our Mission

The ECE Student Advancement Committee supports student involvement and participation in the ECE community. We sponsor many activities every semester, and represent the ECE student body's concerns in communication with the department administration.

We turn our student

feedback into action.

Initiatives

Each semester, ECESAC organizes and supports initiatives that enrich the ECE undergraduate experience, including:

Town Halls that give students a platform to share feedback directly with faculty
Technical Electives and Research Fairs that help students make informed academic decisions
Social and mentorship programs like Big Sib/Little Sib and wellness-focused events that foster community and support mental health

We also work closely with department leadership to voice concerns about curriculum, advising, facilities, and the overall student experience.
