'''Current structure is too confusing; organize an umbrella head for all I&E initiatives and programs, with main manifestation being a website.'''
#'''Website that is clear, concise, and minimalistic. [[File:Bootstrap-resources-templates-05.jpg|thumb|Bootstrap-resources-templates-05.jpg]]'''
<ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
<li>A student should be able to enter this website and not be overwhelmed by the structure.
**Short and easy URL (tamuie.com, ie.tamu.edu, etc)
*The website should be a portal that any student can use to find out more about I&E at TAMU.
**Can be categorized by specific perks and benefits of each program to match an individual student's needs[[File:Square.png|thumb|Square.png]]</li>
<li>Launch the initiative</li>
<li>Reiterate</li>
</ol>
 
== '''PROJECT D.E.M.O.''' ==
 
*Need a way to showcase the separate efforts of the I&E programs across campus
*Need a way to keep track of events of all the different I&E programs into a single calendar
*This is another centralization effort that enables students to enter the hub and become familiarzed and aware of all of the different programs across campus
 
#'''Demo Day at the end of the academic year'''
<ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
<li>'''​'''This is to showcase all of the events by selecting highlights</li>
<li>This can expose students or "viewers" to the different programs and the roles they played in developing the projects</li>
<li>Should decide between presentation style and science fair style</li>
<li>Aggressive marketing to ensure a large audience of other I&E students and those who are potentially interested</li>
<li>PLAN:</li>
</ul>
<ol style="margin-left: 40px;">
<li>Discuss with stakeholders, I&E student leaders, and industry partners to broadly construct the outline of the event-- namely science-fair or presentation-pitch style</li>
<li>Contact the different I&E programs to highlight their most successful venture to be part of the demo</li>
<li>Organize and plan the demo</li>
<li>Coordinate with I&E directors</li>
<li>Aggressively market to students who are both in and not in I&E</li>
<li>Finalize structure, confirm attendance and participation of the highlight projects</li>
<li>Launch</li>
<li>Survey results of all those who were involved, including attendees, sponsors, directors, and demo-ers</li>
</ol>
 
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;2.&nbsp;'''Central calendar for all I&E related events'''
<ul style="margin-left: 40px;">
Events like this are easier to organize if there is a single timeline<li>Front end visualization framework backed by a google calendar that is easily modifiable by representatives of different I&E programs</li>
<li>Make part of H.U.B.</li>
Plan</ul>
<ol style="margin-left: 40px;">
<li>Coordinate with directors of I&E programs about the idea</li>
<li>Create a framework or bot that helps to automate the scheduling</li>
<li>Re-coordinate with directors to instruct on scheduling</li>
<li>Update H.U.B. to reflect the schedule on the backend</li>
<li>Advertise H.U.B. and calendar</li>
</ol>
*&nbsp;I&E advisors should help passionate students who don't know where to start to find their place and program in the I&E ecosystem
*I&E coaches should help students who don't necessarily know which direction to take for their idea
