How to Start a Student Chapter

The American Academy of Environmental Engineers recognizes and assists environmental or environmental engineering student associations. The requirements for recognition and support together with a brief description of the benefits provided follow:

The Academy will recognize environmental engineering student associations which:

• are organized to benefit environmental engineering undergraduate and/or graduate students and related engineering and scientific disciplines as determined by the student association;
• are officially recognized (chartered) by the university where the student association is located;
• are operated with the guidance of a faculty advisor; and
• agree to fulfill the responsibilities prescribed by the Academy.

The Academy will provide environmental engineering student associations which it recognizes with the following benefits:

• assignment of an AAEE BCEE/BCEEM to provide practical assistance to a student association;
• a cloisonne lapel pin for each student member attesting to the Academy's recognition;
• a subscription to the Environmental Engineer for each student member paying $10/year (optional);
• a copy of the Environmental Engineering Selection & Career Guide for each student member (this is a good job hunting tool);
• one year of affiliation with the Academy as an Intern Environmental Engineer without charge to each graduate environmental engineer who provides proof of possessing an EIT certificate; and
• a certificate for the chapter commemorating the Academy's recognition.

The recognition and benefits as described above are equivalent or better than other engineering societies provide their student members.
