Outreach

ABOUT

Mission: Promote community engagement of SEAONC members.


The Outreach Committee is committed to providing SEAONC members with avenues to contribute to the bay area community through both volunteer events and youth outreach programs. Volunteer events organized by the Outreach committee aim to employ the skill sets of structural engineers to give back to the community. Youth outreach programs aim to inspire students (from elementary to college level) to go into the Architecture, Construction, and Engineering Industry. Our committee particularly aims to expose students from low-income and minority groups to our field, to encourage diversity in our field. In addition to the external outreach goals, we also focus on assisting other SEAONC committees with outreach-oriented tasks relating to their charges and initiatives.

COMMITTEE CHARGES

  1. Collaborate with bay area teachers and student groups to plan introduction to structural engineering presentations and activities for K-12 students. Most of our activities involve using MOLA kits to explain structural engineering concepts and allow students to have hands-on modeling experience. 
  2. Develop tools for HS internship opportunities within SEAONC firms 
  3. Collaborate with local volunteer organizations to organize SEAONC wide volunteer days to benefit the community, i.e Rebuilding Together build days.
