School of Engineering's Clubs and Organizations Listing
ACI
The American Concrete Institute (ACI) students club provides learning and networking opportunities to enhance students’ professional development. ACI student members have access to electronic versions of ACI's monthly magazine on concrete design and construction, Structural Journal, and Materials Journal.
ASCE
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) as a Society (https://www.asce.org/) gears at the general health and welfare of the public, working everywhere from governmental relations, to K-12 outreach projects. We, as a whole, strive to give better understanding to the general public about all sides of Civil Engineering, as well as maintain, and improve the current state the US infrastructure.
In our Student Chapter, you will have opportunity to partake in Student Conferences all over the Southeast, putting to use your classroom knowledge, as well as pushing you to dig deeper. We host socials with our professional "parent" chapter, allowing for networking and professional development. In ASCE, we are a community.
SHPE
The Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers strives to become the source for quality Hispanic Engineers and technical talent and be a leading social organization whose primary function is to enhance and achieve the potential of Hispanics and members in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.
ASHE
The primary benefit of being part of ASHE UNF is the opportunity to grow technically and professionally. ASHE provides a forum to interact with one’s peers in the transportation industry while working together to help solve common problems and discuss pertinent issues.
ASME
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers purpose is to serve students by helping them develop professional skills by offering immersive activities such as engineering projects, professional growth workshops, student socials, company tours, and volunteering opportunities.
COPRI
Coasts, Oceans, Ports and Rivers Institute serves its membership and society by uniting the disciplines working to sustainably develop, protect and restore coasts, oceans, ports, waterways, rivers, and wetlands; integrating the key stakeholders into decision-making processes; advancing technological state of art and practice; and influencing public policy.
UNF COPRI is proud to be a student chapter at the University of North Florida since September 2012. COPRI stands for: Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute. UNF is currently working in unison with ASCE/COPRI to advance the engineering profession along the coasts through a collective effort that is mutually beneficial to both organizations. Past, present, and future activities include club meetings, seminars, workshops, conferences, socials, and field trips. These events incorporate industry professionals from within the local community in northeast Florida, as well as prestigious engineers from around the nation. UNF is also progressing the coastal engineering community by involving up-and-coming young engineers and scientists with industry professionals through networking opportunities and project site visits. You are invited to join UNF COPRI’s efforts in promoting the importance of science and engineering along the coastlines of our planet.
Electric Vehicle Osprey (EVO)
Electric Vehicle Osprey (EVO) is a UNF RSO whose goal is to convert a gas-powered vehicle to a fully operating electric vehicle. EVO is and opportunity for any student at UNF interested in electrical applications to bring to life what is learned in EE classrooms. Creating an electric car will increase students' problem-solving skills, while simultaneously reinforcing the material they have learned in classes such as Physics II and Circuits Analysis. Taking the concepts and electrical procedures learned in the classroom and applying them to a technical situation will allow students to further not only their education but also their careers. EVO is determined to make better students and even better engineers!
Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society
The IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society is dedicated to the benefit of its members and all of humanity with our efforts focused on five driving objectives.
- Advance medicine, biology, healthcare, and well-being through the application of engineering and data sciences and technology.
- Promote the profession of biomedical engineering, foster professional development and recognize excellence
- Present conferences that bring together scientist, engineers, and physicians from multiple disciplines to disseminate knowledge and solve meaningful complex problems.
- establish technical standards
- provide global leadership for the profession
FES
The purpose of the Florida Engineering Society is to offer students with interest in engineering a place to nurture leadership skills, advocate for Professional Engineer licensure, and a chance to network with student and professional engineers in the Osprey and Jacksonville community.
IEEE
UNF IEEE wants to help bring students the opportunity to experience engineering outside of the classroom. We have much to offer including projects, tutoring, student involvement and much more!
Come see us, all majors welcome!
ITE
ITE is a student chapter to the parent Institute of Transportation Engineers organization and is geared toward capacity-building, showing impact of transportation to the community and creating networks between students and professionals in the field
NSBE
Fulfilling the mission to increase the number of culturally responsible black engineers, who excel academically, succeed professionally, and positively impact the community
Osprey Robotics
Osprey Robotics was established to introduce students to the fascinating subject of hobbyist robotics. Osprey Robotics is dedicated to the education of those who wish to explore the intricate world of robotic systems. A wide swathe of disciplines are interred within the field, and as such the club is a great way to experience interdisciplinary coordination.
Osprey Racing
Every year, UNF SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) competes with about 120 other teams internationally at the Michigan International Speedway in both dynamic and static events with a student built F1 style race car. This competition tests the ability of the student-designed car as well as the team's ability to present the design to a group of judges. The purpose of this club is to encourage student driven learning through competition in all facets of business, design, manufacturing, and testing. We accept all majors whether you've raced your whole life or just want to learn about the industry. Come check us out!
SAE Aerospace Design Club
The Aerospace Design Club exists to provide students with real-world experience relating to the design, construction and flight of aircraft. The SAE Aero Design competition is the primary event that the club participates in; this event is structured to compress a typical aircraft development program (in the context of RC flight) into one calendar year, taking participants through the system engineering process of breaking down requirements. It exposes participants to the nuances of conceptual design, manufacturing, system integration/test, and sell-off through demonstration.
SEWRA
Our mission is simply bridging water resources and professionals in the water industry with students. If you are interest in Drinking Water, Groundwater, Stor-mwater, Water Quality, Drainage, Wastewater, Public Health, Water Resource Planning, Emergency Management, Water Research, Desalination, Water Treatment, Drinking Water, Distribution Plant, Water Plant Operation, and/or Water Facility Design & Construction, than this is the organization to be affiliated with.
SWE
The Society of Women Engineers(SWE) is an organization dedicated to the promotion of women in engineering. The society provides a place for engineering students to network with other students and professionals through meetings and volunteer events. SWE is open to all students and all engineering disciplines.
