The Tau Beta
Pi Association, a national
engineering honor society,
was founded in 1885 to offer
appropriate recognition for
superior scholarship and
exemplary character to
technical students and
professional persons.
Students in
the upper eight of the
junior class and the upper
fifth of the senior class
and with an accumulative GPA
of 3.10 or better are
eligible. The honor
conferred by election to
membership is significant
because of the Association's
high eligibility standards,
the reward comes from the
students, and the worldwide
reputation of the society.
Tau Beta Pi
is an honor society but it
does engage in activities to
further its objectives; such
as stimulation of
faculty-student
communication and faculty
course ratings. Each year
the organization awards one
professor the Tau Beta Pi
Outstanding Professor Award. |
