Overview
Student Organizations are a wonderful way to get involved with other students, faculty and community
members who share your interests and career goals. The College of Technology hosts numerous student
organizations, some of them reflecting larger national or international professional organizations
and some which are unique to our college.
Membership in the honor societies is by invitation only and is based on academic merit.
Student membership in the professional organizations is available to students who
are in accredited programs that relate to that of the mission of the professional organization.
Usually dues are required, as is a certain minimal course load in the area of your major.
The College of Technology also hosts the following student organizations with local activities.
- AITP -
For those in the information systems or graphics technology programs.
- ASME -
For those interested in mechanical engineering technology.
- DECA (Delta Epsilon Chi) -
for those interested in the consumer science and merchandising programs.
- IEEE
(Institute for Electrical and Electronics Engineers) -
for those interested in the computer engineering or electrical power programs.
- IGAEA
(International Graphic Arts Education Association) -

- ABC (Associated Builders and Contractors Student Chapters) -

- SIDO (Students in Logistics Technology) -

Those in the technology supervision program
might also be interested in one of the student societies listed above, depending upon the
area of their course emphasis.
Some of these societies do not require a certain major, so in those cases you are
also free to join merely out of an interest in that area. See the specific requirements
for the society to find out the details.
