Eta Kappa Nu (HKN) is the national Electrical and Computer Engineering honor society.
The Berkeley chapter is among the most active engineering societies at Berkeley, providing academic services to fellow undergraduates.
Our two offices are located in 290 Cory and 345 Soda near the northeastern corner of the UC Berkeley campus.
Student Services
Tutoring
Students who need advice or tutoring in EE and CS courses are encouraged to drop by for free assistance. Officers hold office hours from 11am to 5pm every weekday.Exam Preparation
HKN provides a database of past exams and review problems to prepare students for midterms and finals. In addition, look out for exam review sessions for lower-division courses.Course Surveys and Peer Advising
HKN conducts course surveys for all classes offered by the EECS department every semester. The results for all professors and TAs who have opted-in are available online. Students who need more advice in choosing classes are encouraged to consult our officers during office hours.Industrial Relations
HKN has strong ties with industry, linking students with companies by setting up info sessions where companies can give a presentation about themselves and provide a forum for students to talk to industry and find out more about the work environment. Additionally, we sell resume books containing the resumes of our members.
Membership
Membership in Eta Kappa Nu is extended to undergraduates in the top fourth of the junior class and the top third of the senior class in EECS, and all continuing EE graduate students. Interested students should watch for the list of eligible names, which is posted around Cory Hall and Soda Hall about a month after the beginning of each semester.
After being invited to join, prospective members participate in projects and social activities that demonstrate their dedication to serving fellow members of the EECS community, the ultimate goal of HKN.
