American Society for Engineering Education

The first ASEE Student Chapter was founded in 1993 at Purdue University under the leadership of Dr. Jim Jones. Since its inception, many universities have followed with recent booms marked by the formation of the Student Constituent Committee (SCC) in 2007. Student chapters are now guided and supported by the division-hopeful SCC. The executive council works with graduate and undergraduate students to help start new chapters, support current chapters, and revive those chapters that have gone dormant. The united goal between the SCC and its ASEE Student Chapters is to recognize institutions seriously involved in engineering education and to provided students with an avenue into the engineering education community.
