'''''Engineering Games''''' (also known as '''Eng Games''', or '''Jeux de Génie''', JDG in french) is a province-wide engineering competition around which a community of engineering undergraduate students from 11 different schools is built. The Games themselves takes place during the first week of January every year, but the participants keep in touch and participate in many social events together year-round.

The chief or co-chiefs are chose by a selection committee, in January. The rest of the executive team are then chosen by the chief or co-chief in the following weeks. The executive members can be general members of the [[EUS]] or of BESS (bioresource engineering students).<br>

=== Selection Process ===
=== Selection Process ===
The selection process for the Games is called ''The Race'' (also known as ''La Course''). It constitutes in a list of events that the executive committee attend and expect people who want to do the Games to go to. The events vary between parties, improvisation or trivia practices, sports days, etc. To participate in the race, students must buy a race shirt and fill out an interest form. Another way of getting selected to be a part of the delegation is by getting involved in the preparation of the machine or entrepreneurship competition.
