Call For Papers

# Call for Student Volunteers

Student volunteers play a crucial role in ensuring the success of ICSE. They help with everything from registration to local support. Being a student volunteer is an excellent opportunity to meet, interact, and network with leading academic and industrial researchers and practitioners in the area of Software Engineering. Such interactions often help shape the research direction for many a student. Being a student volunteer is also a great way to meet other students from all over the world that share your interest for Software Engineering and to reduce some of the costs of the conference!

This exclusive experience is available to undergraduate and graduate students from all over the world who are enthusiastic and willing to contribute to make ICSE 2019 a unique experience for all attendees.

Would you like to be part of the ICSE 2019 organization? Don’t miss your chance! Sign up and help us!

## Responsibilities

Approximately 20 hours of work during the conference week:

* Registration duties (e.g., setting up, preparing conference bags, and helping attendees register).
* Technical assistance to speakers and attendees.
* Providing directions to various locations at the conference location.
* Checking badges at various halls including dining halls.

The letter should cover your organizational skills, willingness to help, proficiency in English, and anything else that will help us to select you as a student volunteer.
