Dear UP IEOR Faculty, Students and Friends,
I’d like to welcome you to the 3rd month of the year 2024 and we have been on a great start. It is with great pleasure that finally, the IE Wing is connected to DilNet 2.0. By using your UPD Account, you can access the internet for your academic and research needs. For this, I’d like to thank the University for the support.
We have a lot in store for you this month! But as a teaser, the IE Department, together with the ALLIES, will release the UP IEORD MerchandIEse!! We hope to get your support in this fundraising endeavor to fund more student activities!
Sincerely,
Sir PamPam
