2026 Giving Day
Student Clubs and Organizations
Student Clubs and Organizations
MSOE is home to over 100 student organizations, offering a wide range of opportunities for students to connect with others who share similar interests. Getting involved in these groups allows students to engage with their community, develop leadership skills and expand their horizons, all while finding their place within the MSOE community. To explore the different clubs and organizations available, visit Student Organizations at MSOE.
"A large portion of the technology on campus, lab spaces and high-tech facilities in general have been available because of the support MSOE receives from alumni and the community. On a smaller scale, donors have supported my student orgs and provided us additional funding to utilize at club meetings."
— Benjamin Leshin, UX Major, Class of 2026
"Thanks to donor support, I have gotten to attend various leadership workshops teaching me how to be a leader while also establishing alumni connections with industry professionals not only from MSOE but nationally and across the United States."
— Estevan Onorato, Computer Science Major, Class of 2026
By contributing to student organizations, you help foster the growth and development of both individual students and the broader MSOE community, enabling a more vibrant and engaged campus.
