The goal of the Harding University student chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers is to:

  • advance and disseminate the knowledge of mechanical engineering
  • provide an initial means of contact with the professional industrial world by means of tours, guest speakers, participating in related industry events and involvement in ASME events
  • prepare students for standardized professional testing
  • promote development of an ethical and community conscientious student and future engineer with a Christian worldview

The Biomedical Engineering Society is the professional society for biomedical engineering and bioengineering. The Harding University student chapter of BMES was chartered in 2013 and its purpose is to give glory to our creator, advance biomedical engineering and life science technology at Harding, and embrace the overall mission of BMES.

The student sections of the American Society of Civil Engineers and the American Institute of Steel Construction are professional societies for civil engineering and construction science majors. This dual section seeks to advance civil engineering and construction science students in the areas of construction, environmental, transportation, geotechnical and structural fields. The student section promotes professional development and service to the community.

WITH A FOCUS ON TECHNICAL EXCELLENCE FROM A CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW, WE EMPOWER STUDENTS TO MAKE A MEANINGFUL IMPACT AS ENGINEERS.
