American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a 120,000-member professional organization focused on technical, educational and research issues of the engineering and technology community. The mission of ASME is to promote and enhance the technical competency and professional well-being of its members, through quality programs and activities in mechanical engineering, to better enable its practitioners to contribute to the well-being of humankind. The purpose of a Student Section is: to provide an opportunity for students to begin their professional careers by joining a professional engineering society; to inform students of recent developments in the field of mechanical engineering through publications, field trips and meetings; to promote fellowship and interaction with other student sections, as well as professional sectors of the Society. Advisor: Mr. Robert Setlock

Engineering Honor Society (EHS) The Ohio Xi Chapter of Tau Beta Pi serves "to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their alma mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary character as undergraduates in the field of engineering, or by their attainments as alumni in the field of engineering, and to foster a spirit of liberal culture in the engineering colleges."  Students in the majors of Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Paper Science & Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, and Chemical Engineering are eligible for election into EHS.   Eligibility is based on academic performance based GPAs placing one in the top 1/8 of juniors and top 1/5 of seniors, election of candidates  is based on commitment to leadership and service to the profession and community.  Advisor:  Dr. Doug Coffin

Engineering Students Abroad (ESA) is an organization that will encourage engineering students to travel abroad by being a "club" through which students can exchange ideas about their student abroad experiences and desires. As stated in their constitution, the objective of the ESA organization is"...to help engineering students study abroad." Engineering students who have already studied abroad or who might have information about studying abroad will be able to promote their experiences and knowledge to younger engineering students who are interested in studying abroad. This organization will also allow engineering students to form social relationships with others having similar interests. Advisor: Dr. Osama Ettouney

MME Student Advisory Council (SAC) represents the broader spectrum of the Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Engineering Management student body. The purpose of the council is to provide a mechanism for students to give constructive feedback on their educational experience. This partnership helps the department to communicate closely with the students, to learn first hand about the students' needs and concerns and to gain invaluable insight into their perception of the program. SAC is the group responsible for planning Engineering Week activities as well as other social activites for MME majors. Advisor: Dr. Osama Ettouney

Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) is a non-profit educational and scientific organization dedicated to advancing mobility technology to better serve humanity. With over 89,000 engineers and scientists as members, SAE develops technical information on all forms of self-propelled vehicles including automobiles, trucks and buses, off-highway equipment, aircraft, aerospace vehicles, marine, rail, and transit systems. The SAE student chapter brings together young engineers toenhance their exposure and education in automotive technology as well as to create an enjoyable and sociable organization. Student members actively participate in the highly popular SAE competitions, such as Formula SAE, Mini-Baja and Micro-Truck Baja, where students design, build and test their own automotive vehicles. Advisor: Dr. Carter Hamilton

Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME) is the world's leading resource "Where Manufacturing Comes Together" - both people and information - to advance manufacturing knowledge, innovation, productivity, flexibility, and continuous improvement are key ingredients to success in the constantly evolving world of manufacturing. At the core of everything SME does is the belief that continuous learning is the most effective way for individuals and organizations to accomplish these objectives and gain a sustainable competitive advantage. Miami's student chapter provides engineering students the chance to explore manufacturing through industry speakers, plant tours, and social activities. Advisor: Dr. Michael Bailey-Van Kuren

Society of Women Engineers (SWE), founded in 1950, empowers women to succeed and advance in their aspirations and be recognized for their life-changing contributions and achievements as engineers and leaders. The student section at Miami University seeks to encourage girls (K-12) to consider engineering or computing as a career choice as well as support the current engineering and computer students during their academic career. They hold regular monthly meetings as well as outreach events, social events, and professional development workshops. Advisor: Dr. Lei Kerr

National Society for Professional Engineers (NSPE) is the premier national organization that promotes and defends the professional interests of all engineering professionals. It is the national society of engineering professionals from all disciplines that promotes the ethical and competent practice of engineering, advocates licensure, and enhances the image and well-being of its members. The overall purpose of NSPE chapter programs is to stimulate continued interest in and understanding of the professional dimensions of engineering and to guide graduating seniors in the steps required to reach professional status through licensure as a professional engineer. NSPE is a nontechnical professional society, so a student chapter's programs are devoted mainly to nontechnical subjects. The generic nature of the meetings allows for participation by technical societies on campus as well. The NSPE Student Chapter is meant to complement student technical society activities, not compete with them. Advisor: Dr. James Van Kuren
