Our community is stronger when all students recognize and respect the diverse backgrounds of their peers. These resources exist to help students educate themselves on these topics and communicate the value of inclusivity to their peers.

Student Organizations

To support the unique needs of students within the College of Engineering, students have the opportunity to join several student-led organizations with a diversity focus. These organizations are open to any student, and each encourages professional development and community building for underrepresented groups in engineering. An undergraduate representative from each of these organizations sits on the Engineering Together Committee.

 

For more than six decades, the Society of Women Engineers has given women engineers a unique place and voice within the engineering industry. The Auburn SWE chapter is centered around a passion for our members' success and continues to evolve with the challenges and opportunities reflected in today's exciting engineering and technology specialties. For more information about Auburn's local SWE Chapter, find us on Facebook (Society of Women Engineers (SWE) Auburn University Section).
The purpose of NSBE is "to increase the number of culturally responsible Black Engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally and positively impact the community."
SHPE is a leading social-technical organization whose primary function is to enhance and achieve the potential of Hispanics in science, technology, math and science.
OSTEM is a national organization dedicated to supporting and empowering LGBTQ+ individuals who work in STEM fields or pursue STEM majors. We help students find academic and professional resources that suit their unique needs, work with faculty in the College of Engineering and COSAM to help them develop inclusive classroom practices, and provide LGBTQ+ students in STEM majors a feeling of community so they know they are not alone. Additionally, we have a strict privacy policy to prevent any members from being outed for their participation.

 

College of Engineering Programs

The Samuel Ginn College of Engineering provides programs through its administrative offices to bolster the sense of inclusion, recruitment, and success of underrepresented students.  From pre-college through graduation, these programs provide students with the support they need to become leaders in engineering and promote an inclusive environment in the college.  

  • Celebrating over 25 years of student support, the Center for Inclusive Engineering Excellence strengthens the recruitment and retention of underrepresented students in the Samuel Ginn College of Engineering. This office supports participants both in and out of the classroom by focusing on expanding academic preparation and career readiness.
  • 100+ Women Strong , housed under the Office of Development, is made up of alumni and friends of the college who embrace our vision to provide resources and programming that will enable us to recruit, retain and reward female students in Auburn Engineering.  Though not a student organization, 100+ Women Strong provides mentoring, scholarships, and professional development events to help recruit, retain, and reward female students in the College of Engineering.  100+ Women Strong also recognizes outstanding leadership in the College of Engineering by sponsoring the 100+ Women Strong Leadership Awards each spring.

 

Scholarships

The Samuel Ginn College of Engineering is committed to supporting all students through their scholastic program. For the 2022-23 academic year, over $4.7 million was awarded by the college to engineering students. 

Students must apply through the Auburn University Scholarship Opportunity Manager (AUSOM) each year to receive consideration for engineering scholarships. AUSOM’s online features and benefits allow students to search, review requirements, apply and accept awards for available scholarship opportunities, all within one easy-to-use site.

Students are also encouraged to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to receive financial aid. The FAFSA is available online and should be received for consideration of financial aid, including need-based scholarships.
