Who we are
Run by students who ship.
DSEC is the Deakin Software Engineering Club, a project-led student club at Burwood affiliated with DUSA. We exist so members leave Deakin with real software and real people behind them.
What we stand for
Three things, no fluff.
Build, don't just attend
Every term ends with software that exists. Passive workshops aren't the point.
In public
Repos, commits and demos. We share what we make and how we made it.
Everyone ships
First-years to final-years. If you turn up and try, you leave with something real.
Who runs DSEC
Meet the exec team.
DSEC is led by a volunteer executive committee of Deakin students who handle everything from event planning and sponsorship to Discord moderation and code-review nights. Execs are elected at our AGM each year, following DUSA club rules.
Executes internal operations, coordinates committee heads, and keeps projects on track.
Builds visual identity, creates marketing assets, and manages social media presence.
