Student Community
Join us in fulfilling the vision of the American Ecological Engineering Society (AEES) – to be at the forefront of integrating ecological design principles into engineering education and practice. As an organization, we are dedicated to nurturing the next generation of ecological engineers, and you can be a vital part of this mission!
AEES student chapters play a pivotal role in engaging undergraduate and graduate students. These chapters empower students to become leaders within their institutions, fostering innovation and collaboration in ecological engineering.
The goals of AEES student chapters may vary, but they often include providing networking opportunities, organizing career-building activities, undertaking ecological engineering projects on campuses or in communities, and supporting student attendance at the AEES Annual Meeting.
Excited to kickstart a new AEES Student Chapter at your institution? Fantastic! We're here to support you every step of the way. Simply complete the New AEES Student Chapter Interest Form, and a member of the Student Committee will connect with you to offer guidance and assistance in establishing your chapter. Be sure to review the Student Chapter Guidelines for more information. Let's work together to shape the future of ecological engineering!
