Overview
Discover Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E)
These are a couple of introductory freshman level courses that give students a global view of what engineering is and how it relates to the society.
EGN 1100 Introduction to engineering
EGN 1033 Human, Technology and Society
Events
- TEDxFIU: It is an event meant to spread great ideas to the people/students. There will normally be a guest spearker and a live audience of 250 students and 1500 online viewers. This is a independently organized event. It is free for students of FIU to attend the event and is usually soldout very fast. http://tedxfiu.com/
Orgnizations
- Tau Beta Pi: This is a honors engineering society, they seek out people from most majors that have secured a high class rank. One must do a couple of activities that give you some entreprenurial skills to then be inducted into the society. The benefits that come with this society are meeting other high achieving people, obtaining scholarships and fellowships.
- Society of Automotive Engineers:Also known as SAE, this is a club that sees a couple of majors (electrical & mechanical) working together to build a race car for a competition which is held in Michigan. To join one must complete a short quiz regarding competition guidelines and attend student meetings.
- Engineers Without Borders:This is a non-profit organization, its main purpose is to stablish projects in developing communities around the globe and inprove their way of life. Some of the projects may include implementation of alternate sources of potable water. This organization uses engineering knowledge and inplements it in I&E.
