We strive to build a community where our students take responsibility for their education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-tarleton-purple-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-438602564c65084cd19c2feba79df3bb\">With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/engineering\/student-life\/student-organizations\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2336\">eleven engineering-specific organizations<\/a>, our students can focus on their passions while getting hands-on experience with like-minded peers. Many of our organizations are student chapters of national engineering societies, providing scholarships, competition opportunities and industry connections, giving students even more career opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-tarleton-purple-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-939bbd7fbed2db4df0ea2da8d03f29c2\">While most of our organizations highlight a specific engineering field, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/engineering\/engineering-ambassadors\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2648\">Engineering Ambassadors<\/a> are made up of students from every department. The ambassadors host facility tours for potential students and business professionals, community outreach and much more. We encourage students to get involved by hosting organization cookouts in our courtyard, where they can share more about all the opportunities within our college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-tarleton-purple-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4231e099d3990d548cd2622e8c853518\">Every semester, the Mayfield College of Engineering hosts an engineering-specific career fair to give students the opportunities to network, find internships and meet employers, helping ensure success post graduation. Tarleton State prepares students professionally by providing resume and LinkedIn workshops, career coaches and free professional headshots. In the spring, students present projects and research at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/visit\/engineering-showcase\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/visit\/engineering-showcase\/\">Mayfield College of Engineering Student Project Showcase<\/a>. This event recognizes the intentional dedication Tarleton State students have to their education, showcasing their accomplishments for their peers, the Stephenville community, potential employers and our Engineering Advisory Board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-columns advgb-columns-wrapper\" id=\"advgb-cols-54bad44c-a38c-4049-bd55-1a28d9128c74\"><div class=\"advgb-columns-container\"><div class=\"advgb-columns advgb-columns-row advgb-is-mobile advgb-columns-3 layout-13-13-13 mbl-layout-stacked gutter-30 vgutter-10\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-column advgb-column\" id=\"advgb-col-c8e5a9c2-98f8-45f4-a3fc-17995d8295ea\"><div class=\"advgb-column-inner\" style=\"border-style:none;border-width:1px\">\r\n<div class=\"icon-card\">\r\n    <div class=\"icon-card-wrapper\">\r\n        <div class=\"icon-card-header\">\r\n                                        <h2>Engineering Success Center<\/h2>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n        <div class=\"icon-card-content\">\r\n                            <p>Our tutors are advanced undergraduate students who have strong background in their respective disciplines.
