The Engineering Ambassadors Network is a professional development organization with an outreach mission. Originally created to recruit female students into engineering, the mission of the network has evolved to encourage students from all underrepresented groups to go into STEM. In addition, the focus has evolved to not just recruit students into STEM, but to empower the engineering ambassadors themselves with advanced communication and leadership skills.
Founded in 2009 at Penn State , the network has spread to other universities across the country, and now boasts more than 700 student Engineering Ambassadors. This mission is accomplished by professionally developing the communication and leadership skills of undergraduate students who serve as a grass roots network to promote STEM. |
