Clubs
Engineering students actively participate in service learning projects and volunteering to work on local, national, and global issues. The department has five active clubs that expand your horizons while providing a fun social atmosphere.
* For up-to-date information on club meeting times and contacts, please check the Virtual Fishbowl Canvas site. You may also find information about club meetings and events on the Engineering Events Calendar.
| School of Engineering Student Association (SoESA) ~ established: 1975 | |
|---|---|
Contact: eresa@humboldt.edu Advisor: Dr. Maysam Mousaviraad | School of Engineering Student Association (SoESA) is the engineering club for all engineering majors at Cal Poly Humboldt. Formerly known as the Environmental Resources Engineering Student Association (ERESA). We are the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) student chapter, as well as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) student chapter at Cal Poly Humboldt. Our mission is to foster professional development and build a strong engineering community. Each year, we organize events and fundraisers to support student participation in professional activities, such as the ASCE Mid-Pacific Student Water Treatment Competition. |
| Society of Women Engineers (SWE) ~ established: 1999 | |
Contact: swe@humboldt.edu Advisor: Dr. Christa Meingast | The Society of Women Engineers (SWE) mission is to stimulate women to achieve full potential in careers as engineers and leaders, expand the image of the engineering profession as a positive force in improving the quality of life, and demonstrate the value of diversity. SWE plans events that inspire young girls to become involved in science and math. Women, men and non-engineers are encouraged to become members of SWE. |
| Renewable Energy Student Union (RESU) ~ established: 2005 | |
Contact: resu@humboldt.edu Advisor: Dr. Pascal Biwole | The purpose of the Renewable Energy Student Union (RESU) is to facilitate more renewable energy related activities for the Environmental Resources Engineering program. RESU students have worked with the Schatz Energy Research Center to develop a docent program where ERE students teach local school children about renewable energy and installed a solar radiation monitoring station on the library roof. RESU draws members from the both undergraduate ERE students and environmental systems graduate students. |
| Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) ~ established: 2014 | |
Contact: shpe@humboldt.edu Advisor: Dr. Josh Stiemel | The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) is a national organization that is at the forefront of advancing Hispanic individuals in the STEM fields--Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. The SHPE-Humboldt club focuses on academic excellence and professional development. Other activities include community outreach and cooperating with other clubs. SHPE-Humboldt is not exclusive to Hispanic people and welcomes individuals of all backgrounds to join. |
| Creative Hub for Autonomous Operations and Systems ~ established: 2023 | |
