Buckeyes Give: Month of Service

April 1, 2017 - April 22, 2017

Follow the links for details and register at the OSUAA Volunteer Match site.

Buckeyes give back. It’s who we are. It’s what we do. We help our neighbors, our community, our friends, our family,and we have a blast doing it. So what better time than during the annual Month of Service in April, to make a difference in the world around you?

The Electrical and Computer Engineering Alumni Society has coordinated with volunteer and outreach organizations within the College of Engineering to provide unique opportunities for alumni to participate in their current activities.  Interact with current students and contribute to several meaningful efforts from the college that go well beyond classrooms and research.

If you are interested in volunteering at one of the events listed below, follow the link to get more details and register at the OSUAA Volunteer Match site.

STEM Outreach

Professor Betty Lise Anderson has created an Award-winning program to spark K-12 students interest in STEM through simple and fun projects emphasizing engineering concepts.  Over the years, based on 1-2 hour sessions where students create a working machine, over 15,000 students have been awakened to a future in Engineering.
