JOIN A COMMITTEE
Projects
ASME’s Projects Committee members collaborate on real-world builds that bring classroom knowledge to life while developing teamwork and technical skills. This semester, the committee is taking on an exciting drone project, giving students the opportunity to dive into aerodynamics, controls, and design. One of our most notable past achievements is the AR Sandbox, an interactive system that uses augmented reality to visualize topography and water flow in real time. Showcasing the power of engineering to blend creativity, technology, and education. Joining the Projects Committee means getting the chance to create, experiment, and provide technical experience to ASME members.
