ClubINFO – CTF End

The CTF is officially finished. We would like to thank all the teams for their active participation and motivation. Congratulations to Sci_Beer-Sea_Curry-Tea_m (1st) , HSHN (2nd), Cyber Giraffe (3rd).

ClubINFO – Capture the Flag

The ClubINFO, part of the IEEE Student Branch, is currently running a Capture The Flag (CTF) for students of UCLouvain. A CTF is a security contest where contestants have to resolve challenges, mostly related to cybersecurity, to get flags. A flag is a sequence of characters and each flag is associated with a score. The winning team will be the one earning the highest score.

The CTF started the 11th February and will end on the 4th March. There are 12 challenges and 15 teams are participating.

2019 IEEE/ICTEAM Best Master’s Thesis Award

Each year, the UCL IEEE Student Branch, composed of ICTEAM PhD students and supported by both the IEEE and the ICTEAM, organizes a contest for rewarding the best master’s theses in its fields of interest. The goals of the contest are twofold:

  • First, to reward outstanding works from both technical and presentation-wise perspectives. To this end, a jury of researchers reads the abstracts, attends the master thesis presentations and interviews the participants. The three best candidates will receive a monetary reward.
  • Second, to recommend potential candidates for an international contest: the IEEE Region 8 Student Paper Contest. IEEE’s Region 8 spans Europe, Africa and the Middle-East. We have had several successes at this Student Paper Contest, reaching the top 3 in previous years. More info can be found here.

For more information about the contest, please check the rules below. To register, please fill in the form below.

Activities of the Club Elec 2018 – 2019

The Club Elec is the electronics club of UCLouvain supported by the IEEE Student Branch. Each year, many different activities are proposed to discover and learn electronics, from technical presentations to hands-on projects. Here is a short overview of the projects for 2018-2019:

  • Presentation of the useful electronics components for DIY projects.
  • Audio amplifier and filter project.
  • Introduction to DC motors and chopper circuits for motor control
  • Arduino-based guided robot
  • Robot track contest (coming soon…)

If you would like to know more, don’t hesitate to contact members of the Club Elec, visit their website (here), or come to room Stevin a.143 any Wednesday between 1pm and 2pm.

Note that it is still time to take part in the ongoing robot project and contest, if you’re interested.

Congrats Antoine!

We are happy and proud to announce that yet another student from UCLouvain has been selected for the oral finals of the IEEE Region 8 Student Paper Contest.

Congratulations to Antoine Paris with his paper entitled “Identifiability Conditions for Multi-Channel Blind Deconvolution with Short Filters“! Next step: Eurocon 2019 Novi Sad, Serbia, where Antoine will represent UCLouvain and defend his paper in front of an international jury.
