Student Clubs

Engineers Without Borders

Engineers Without Borders is a non-profit humanitarian organization established to partner with developing communities worldwide in order to improve their quality of life. This partnership involves the implementation of sustainable engineering projects, while involving and training internationally responsible engineers and engineering students.

IEEE

IEEE is the world’s largest professional association dedicated to advancing technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity. IEEE and its members inspire a global community through IEEE’s highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards, and professional and educational activities.

The Women in Engineering (WIE) program

The Women in Engineering (WIE) program is dedicated to serving the community of women graduate and undergraduate engineering/computer science students in the College of Engineering. WIE will focus on retention, recruitment and overall climate enhancement activities. The WIE community includes women of from all seven engineering departments at the University of Utah.

Society of Women Engineers (SWE)

Utah’s Society of Women Engineers is the driving force that establishes engineering as a highly desirable career aspiration for women. SWE empowers women to succeed and advance in those aspirations and be recognized for their life-changing contributions and achievements as engineers and leaders.

Tau Beta Pi

Tau Beta Pi is the only national engineering honor society at the University of Utah. TBP members are known not only for their academic excellence, but also for their excellent character and leadership qualities. Moreover, the engineering industry is filled with TBP members, so employers know from experience that members make good employees.

Aerospace club

The Aerospace Club at the University of Utah is a student chapter of American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA). The AIAA promotes the study of aeronautics and astronautics at the University of Utah, helps students to find related employment, sponsors projects for student participation, and organizes activities that complement aerospace education. Club projects include a wide application of Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical, and Computer engineering principles.
