'''''Junior Council'''''  is a committee under the Engineering Undergraduate Society (EUS), composed of approximately twenty first year engineering students, with two second year co-presidents. At the beginning of the fall semester, all incoming first years are encouraged to apply for any VP positions, departmental representatives, or external council representatives. The council’s goal is to welcome all first year engineering students by organizing both academic and social events throughout the school year, and to create a strong network of first year students. :)

===Back To School Apartment Crawl===


This apartment crawl is hosted on the first weekend after school starts in September, and allows new engineering students to get to know each other and encourage them to apply to JC, all while having a super fun time!
The JC apartment crawl is the best of the year. Hosted the first weekend after school starts in September, you'll get the chance to spend the night with your friends (or sign up as a free agent!) and get led around the streets of the McGill ghetto by the world's finest tour guides (past JC members). Get introduced to the rowdiness of the EUS, learn our chants, and hear more about JC and why you should apply!!

First year students often have a tough time learning to network and start pursuing a career. That's why every year, JC hosts a networking conference with talks from alumni, industry professionals, and experts from the [[Engineering Career Centre]].
