DigiKey University Ambassador

EETech, in coordination with DigiKey, is seeking actively enrolled students in EE/ECE programs that want to be involved in exciting and innovative student projects and activities — as university ambassadors. An ideal ambassador is reliable, organized, creative, self-driven, and actively involved with EE/ECE clubs. With this program, we want to foster innovation and strengthen a sense of community for next-generation engineers.

We’re looking for university ambassadors who are motivated, driven, and dedicated campus leaders with a passion for electrical engineering and the industry that shapes the lives of future generations.

DigiKey is recognized as both the leader and continuous innovator in the high service distribution of electronic components and automation products worldwide. DigiKey offers the world’s largest selection of electronic components in stock and available for immediate shipment. Beyond the products that drive technology innovation, DigiKey also supports design engineers and procurement professionals with a wealth of digital solutions and tools to make their jobs more efficient. 

All university ambassadors must have involvement on campus within clubs, organizations, or within their EE/ECE department. Additionally, all ambassadors are expected to collaborate with the Ambassador Management Team to support and drive internal marketing initiatives and student activities. 

The role of an ambassador is flexible throughout the school year, and offers a variety of different ways to participate. Students are expected to submit a minimum number of participation activities per semester, but are encouraged to do as many as they like.

Ambassadors can participate in a variety of different ways:

  • Attend EE/ECE events on your campus as a representative and hand out merchandise
  • Promote DigiKey initiatives or your activity as an ambassador on your social media
  • Film social media content for Instagram reels or TikTok
  • Write technical or educational blog content to be published on DigiKey’s blog site: maker.io
