Make sure to sign in before the 25th of September if you would like one! You have to pick up your card if you register. You will get an email once your card has arrived!

UiPath is a leading Robotic Process Automation vendor providing a complete software platform to help organizations efficiently automate business processes. A core component of the UiPath platform is UiPath Process Mining, which helps to discover opportunities for process optimization and Robotic Process Automation through state of the art Process Mining techniques. Some of these state of the art techniques are explored, researched and prototyped through student graduation projects. An example of such a project is “Visual Conformance Checking”. This technique compares process execution data to the process design, providing businesses with a process “as it runs” versus process “as intended” visual comparison. This conformance information can be leveraged to gain better insights and improve the process, such as through Robotic Process Automations. In this lunch lecture, Dennis Brons will familiarize you with UiPath, Visual Conformance Checking and the graduation project options available. Note: after subscribing, showing up is mandatory! There are 135 spots only with first come first serve.

Do you know the difference between a vulva and a vagina? How much do you know about the human reproductive system? And what can our bodies teach us about our understanding of sex? Join Défi's sex education journey centered around human genitals, presented by two sexology graduates! Not only will you follow an interactive lecture about various (underrepresented) aspects of sex education, we will put our newly gained knowledge in practice by claying vulva's and penises! Of course, you may also clay an erotic sculpture or anything else you wish to sculpt! Did we mention the activity is free??? Background: We all know what our genitals look like, and maybe some of us got to see others as well. But despite sex education being a part of most high school curricula, the general knowledge about our reproductive organs is often lacking. We’re confusing facts with tales, we only know the bare minimum of (heterosexual) intercourse and the anatomy of these organs is a question to most of us. But no worries, Défi has got you covered! Two sexologists will come to GEWIS to give you a crash course on human anatomy, specifically genitals and diversity of human bodies. We will be debunking myths and learning about our own bodies in the interactive session given by these two sexology graduates. But we wouldn’t be Défi, without there being a twist. So afterwards we will put the new learned theory to practice. Here you will get the chance yourself to clay and paint a penis or vagina or any other type of sexual anatomy. All whilst enjoying fun conversation starters, and having the opportunity to ask the sexologists every question you could dream to ask. So do you want to know more about the human body? Are you curious about the anatomy of reproductive organs? Or do you like to be creative and sculp/paint your own sexual organ? Then make sure to subscribe for the activity! We can’t wait to learn more from experts and we hope to see all of you there at the activity! Note!: During this activity we would like to create a safe space, in which everyone is respected and consent is highly valued. We want everyone to feel safe during the entirety of the activity, such that we can all learn and have fun together. Note! There is a maximum capacity of 40 participants. An "order dinner with us" sign up list (eetlijst) is available, so you can get dinner with us, at your own costs. We will order from Tony's: https://tonyswok.nl/#menu. If you choose Wok, specify [Veggie/Chicken/Pork/etc.] + [Nasi fried rice/Bami noodles/Rice] + [Sauce]! Lilac hugs, Défi

On the 9th of October Défi will have their fourth dies! We are very excited to celebrate this event during our dies borrel on the 12th of October. Since we love to go out of our comfort zones, the borrel will have an out of the box dies theme, namely, REINCARNATION! Because what better time is there to think about death and afterlife than on your dies right? :p We think birthdays are a time to celebrate life and the living. It is a time for festivity. However, such times may also be enhanced by taking a moment to think about what it means to live on. Therefore Défi would love to present you, the borrelaars, with things that might feel a little uncomfortable at first, but possess a certain beauty which can help appreciate life a little more. This leaves one with all the more reason to celebrate and cheer! This borrel will clearly not be any ordinary borrel, and therefore we have some fun extra's for you! There will be a borrelcard available including five in-theme items for the mere price of only €4! But that is not all! There will also be a unique darkroom experience where you can follow a story about life, death and reincarnation. We are very excited to celebrate our dies and hope to see you there during the borrel on October 12! Lilac hugs

Would you like to know how ING is implementing the International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) 9? Did you know that it relates to the recognition of an entity’s financial asset/liability in its financial statement and includes an expected credit loss (ECL) framework for recognizing impairment. The quantification of ECL is often broken down into its three components, namely, - the probability of default (PD), - loss-given default (LGD), - and exposure at default (EAD). The IFRS 9 standard requires that the ECL model accommodate the influence of the current and the forecasted macroeconomic conditions on credit loss. This enables a determination of forward-looking estimates on impairments. During the lunch lecture, we will be discussing the approaches we use in the bank to incorporate the forward looking macro-economic information in the IFRS9 expected credit losses models. Note: after subscribing, showing up is mandatory! There are 135 spots only with first come first serve.

NOTE! THIS ACTIVITY IS NOT OPEN TO FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS! Attention everyone! We're excited to announce the upcoming ski trip from February 17th to February 22nd. We'll be hitting the slopes and enjoying the beautiful winter scenery for five nights, with six days of skiing! But that's not all - next to the ski pass that is included in the price, we've got some extra options available for those who want to make the most of their experience. If you're a beginner, be sure to sign up for ski lessons so you can hit the slopes with confidence. Please note that beginners will be required to pay an additional fee of 30 euros to cover the cost of mandatory ski lessons. And if skiing all day every day isn't your thing, we've got some side activities planned to keep you entertained, and the best part is: they're all free! Now, here's even more exciting news! The city center is only a few minutes' walk away from the accommodation, making it super convenient to explore and have a blast in the evenings and nights at the many fun après-ski bars! Please be aware that ski gear and food are not included in the trip price. However, you will be able to rent everything you need via us, and most rooms have a kitchen that you can share together. There are also various restaurants nearby, ranging from cheap kebab spots to more fancy dining options. So, you'll have plenty of choices to satisfy your appetite and fuel up for the adventures! Attention: We're thrilled to offer you an incredible opportunity at a maximum cost of just 650 euros for GEWIS members. Non-members are also welcome to join the fun for around €730 (but GEWIS members have priority). The final cost may lower depending on factors such as group size, the number of beginners, and sponsorship contributions. Rest assured, our goal is to make the trip even more budget-friendly as these factors come into play. Updates regarding the trip costs will be communicated as soon as possible via our Instagram, so stay tuned! If you're interested in joining us, mark your calendars for February 16th when we'll be leaving campus in the afternoon. We'll arrive at our destination the next day just in time for hitting the slopes bright and early. And when it's all over, we'll leave at 7 pm on the 22nd and arrive back on campus in the morning after. This trip promises to be an unforgettable experience, filled with fun, adventure, and excitement. So pack your warmest gear and get ready for a trip you won't forget! More information and specifics will be posted on our Instagram page: GEWISKI. Get ready for an epic ski trip with plenty of fun both on and off the slopes! See you there!
