  3. ASME/WHAT is ASME? UCLA’s Official Chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers Mission: To promote and enhance the technical competency and professional well-being of our members, and through quality programs and activities in mechanical engineering, better enable its practitioners to contribute to the well-being of humankind. • Core Values: • Facilitate the development, dissemination and application of engineering knowledge • Promote the benefits of continuing education and of engineering education • Promote the technical and societal contribution of engineers

  4. ASME/WHAT does UCLA ASME do? Serve as a Resource on Campus that Reinforces ASME’s Mission and Core Values: - Sponsored Projects and Competitions - Link to various Industry Resources - Contribute to the UCLA Community - Complement a Student’s Engineering Education - Encourage Student and Faculty Interaction Outside the Classroom

  5. ASME/Recent Events • Weekly Club Meetings • Update members on upcoming events and projects • Inform members of latest career related opportunities • “Professor Talks” which allow selected faculty • to present latest research and interact with students • in a non-academic setting
