Partner with us
Work with the chapter.
This page is for companies, utilities, startups, national labs, ASU faculty and alumni who want to work with the chapter. Email us and it goes straight to the officers. There’s no form.
01/Ways in
What working with us looks like
There are no sponsorship tiers here. Pick whatever fits what you can actually give; an afternoon of your time is as useful to us as money.
Speak
An hour with students who showed up because they wanted to. The talks that land are about actual projects: what the problem was, what you tried, what it cost.
Run a training session
Past sessions have covered energy efficiency auditing and microgrid design, with equipment on the table for people to use.
Host a visit
A plant, a control room, a lab, a site. Seeing a real system working is hard to replicate in a classroom.
Set a challenge
Give our hackathon a real problem from your work. You get a weekend of prototypes against it, and the students get a brief that isn't made up.
Judge or mentor
Two days in April, or a single evening if that's easier. Mentors get asked the questions students won't ask a speaker at a podium.
Support an event
Prizes, food, materials, travel for a site visit. Budgets are small at club scale, so it doesn't take much to make a difference.
Recruit
Internships, co-ops, graduate roles, thesis projects. We'll pass an opening to the members it actually fits instead of blasting it out to everyone.
Something else
We're new, and most of what we do started as somebody's suggestion. If you've got one, send it.
02/Who you would be reaching
Who’s actually in the room
Members are undergraduate, master’s and PhD students, mostly from the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering but also from sustainability, business, computing and policy. Sessions run on the Tempe campus, and we have taken groups out to the Polytechnic campus for lab work.
In our first spring we ran a speaker session roughly every couple of weeks and closed the year with a two-day energy hackathon across four tracks, held with the IEEE and ASME student branches. Several sessions were co-hosted with other chapters, which is usually the right way to reach more students.
We’re a registered student organization. Not a consultancy, and not part of the university administration. Everything is run by students around their coursework.
What we won’t do
- Put your name or logo on this site, or call you a sponsor or partner anywhere public, without asking you first.
- Pass member contact details to anyone. If you have a role to fill, we'll take it to the members it suits.
- Promise numbers we can't stand behind. Ask what turnout has actually been for a format and we'll tell you.
03/Other routes
If email isn’t your thing
AEE at ASU is on LinkedIn, and everything we run is posted to Instagram — both reach the same officers. Students looking to join should start on the Join page instead.
