Student Organizations

Five student organizations provide social, academic and professional development for our students. Four are student chapters of national organizations and one is a club formed through student interest.

American Society of Mechanical Engineers

Society of Manufacturing Engineers

SME supports and promotes manufacturing and manufacturing engineers.

Society of Women Engineers

SWE is designed specifically for women. The organization focuses on support for female engineers and engineering students, as well as promoting engineering in primary and secondary schools.  Each year, it sponsors Horizons.
