Constitution Definition:
The purpose of the Engineering Organization Fund is to financially assist member organizations in sponsoring engineering-related events and programs, which shall include, but not be limited to, attending or holding engineering conferences, the development and construction of student projects, and sponsoring engineering outreach programs directed at elementary, middle, and high school students.
3 Types of Outreach:
Collegiate – based off the impact of your organization on the school and how your team impacts life at Virginia Tech (i.e. Attending freshman major mixer)
Community – based off the impact your team has on the local community and the events it sponsors for students in local middle schools or high schools (i.e. science demonstration at Blacksburg middle school)
National – based off the impact that you, representing Virginia Tech, have on a national level (i.e. Placing 2nd in the national competition)
