Get Involved.

At IISE, we believe that one of the most important parts of a student organization is forming long-lasting relationships with your fellow members. To help facilitate that, we put on a ton of events where you have the opportunity to meet new people, have a great time, and form those relationships. Even if you're only looking for professional development, the most effective type of network is often the one that you create with your friends. Check out some of the events that we host below and, if you're interested, reach out to us or visit the Event Calendar to see how you can Get Involved!

Ways to Get Involved

General Body Meetings

Our General Body Meetings (GBM's) are the easiest way for you to get involved with the chapter. This is where we announce all of the new and exciting things that we're working on and we will often tie in some professional development opportunities (e.g., information sessions or professional panels). We also serve free food, so come out to eat some food and meet new friends!

Mentorship Program

Our Mentorship Program is the best way for members to get involved with the organization in a more intimate way. With our selection process and exciting challenges, you are bound to learn a lot from your professional mentor and have a great time doing it. To learn more about what the Mentorship Program is all about, visit the Mentorship page!

Social Events

Everyone needs to unwind after a long day of work and how better to do that than hanging out with your IISE buddies?! Our social events include Game Nights, Ice Cream Socials, Movie Nights, and more! Here, you can relax, forget about the stress of your classes, and have a great time with some friends! We are always open to new ideas, so let us know what socials you would like to see!

Professional Development

At IISE, we offer many different forms of professional development to our members. We host information sessions for companies hiring IE's, we coordinate resume workshops and panels with local professionals, we coordinate facility tours, and we attend IE-related conferences. New this year, we will even be hosting our very own Career Fair specifically tailored toward Engineering students, with a host of amazing companies hiring both interns and full-time professionals!

Community Outreach

One of the most important parts of being an Engineer-in-training is taking the initiative to help those less fortunate than you. At IISE, we try to get involved wherever we can and use the force of our chapter the benefit the world in a positive way. Notably, we are heavily involved with Give Kids the World, who provides accommodations and theme park tickets for children with life-threatening illnesses.

IISE Getaways

Think socials, but on a much larger scale. Our getaways include field days, camping trips, beach days, and our HealthIE events. At IISE, we believe that staying active and connecting with nature is important, and this is our primary way of accomplishing that goal. Last year, we held a field day that raised money for the Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children and we received an award for "Most Innovative Event" from Knight-thon! (Photo credit to IM Photography.)
