Who We Are
The purpose of Omega Chi Epsilon is to promote high scholarship, encourage original investigation in chemical engineering, and to recognize the valuable traits of character, integrity, and leadership. The Society serves both undergraduate and graduate chemical engineering students nationwide. To fulfill the goals of the Society, the Epsilon Chapter at the University of Texas at Austin invites students who are in the top 20 percent of their junior or senior class. Graduate students with a 3.5 GPA are also eligible for membership. New members go through a semester-long candidacy process to understand the values promoted by Omega Chi Epsilon. The Chapter also encourages meaningful student-faculty dialogue within the department.
What We’re Fundraising For
Fundraising will go towards scholarships, social events, and service events throughout the semester. Each semester, we offer a need-based scholarship to cover a student's textbook expenses because we don't want the steep cost of our curriculum's textbooks to hinder the student's success. Social events range from field days to professional development workshops such as resume reviews and mock interviews. These events build camaraderie amongst chemical engineers so we can go out and give back to the community. We host service events such as volunteering at the Austin Food Bank, Austin Pets Alive, and supporting daily operations at the LBJ Wildflower Center.
Your Impact
Philanthropy has provided for us the cornerstone to build the chemical engineering community at UT. With interactive events and sufficient funding, we build relationships and connections that last a lifetime.
