Also, selected students may become members of Alpha Epsilon, an agricultural engineering honorary society, Tau Beta Pi, an all engineering Honorary society, and Gamma Sigma Delta, an agricultural honorary society. Each organization has regular meetings, special programs and social events. One area of considerable interest to students in ASAE is participation in a four-state regional professional meeting. Each spring, students in the college present demonstrations and prepare exhibits for Engineers' Week. During E-Week, students from the various departments compete for the best displays and the public is invited to attend.
Students also compete in various athletic events.
Participation is encouraged in these and many other organizations within the college and the university. High School Preparation Students intending to major in any area of engineering must meet the minimum requirements for the College of Engineering and Technology. These requirements include a strong high school background in mathematics and the sciences. The Department of Biological Systems Engineering awards several scholarships each year to undergraduate students. To be considered for a departmental scholarship, students must have applied for financial aid or scholarships through the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Scholarships and Financial Aid Office.
