Mechanical engineering students have the opportunity to become members of, and participate in the activities of a number of professional and honor societies associated with program.

Professional societies with student chapters include:
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME)
The Society of Women Engineers(SWE)
The National Honorary Mechanical Engineering Society(Pi Tau Sigma)

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers is the professional society for mechanical engineers. As would be expected, this organization has the largest membership for student groups in mechanical engineering.

Honor societies with student chapters include Pi Tau Sigma. Pi Tau Sigma is the national honor society for mechanical engineers. Membership for undergraduate students is by invitation based upon scholarship. In addition to high scholarship, members are expected to contribute to the student community through activities such as tutoring, food drives, blood drives, etc.
