Creating better everyday life through engineering and innovation
Creating better everyday life through engineering and innovation
At EMPOWER, our name reflects both our mission and our purpose.
As an acronym: Endeavors to Move People Onward With Engineered Results — this is what we do.
As a word: EMPOWER — this is why we do it.
We are a student-run, student-driven organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for the communities we serve. Through hands-on engineering design projects, our members gain valuable real-world experience while creating meaningful solutions for real challenges.
Beyond project work, EMPOWER provides technical resources, mentorship, and educational opportunities to help students grow as innovators and prepare for impactful careers after graduation.
Through EMPOWER, students are able to participate in 4 different types of projects: Formal Design Projects (FDP), Quarterly Design Projects (QDP), Lab Design Projects (LDP), and Research Projects. To learn more about the different types, check out our project page!
We provide workshops in SolidWorks, resume building, machine shop certifications, dissections, programming, and more! Come meet our wonderful technical directors Lauren and Chandni and get ahead in your projects and classes.
General meetings: Tuesday, 6-7 PM in the TECHE Lab (Engineering IV)
