The complete list of ALL 1,000+ UF student organizations can be found on the GatorConnect page. Students join organizations and design teams to gain experience, join a community of peers working towards a common goal, and build their social and professional networks. It’s up to you to decide which organizations and how many organizations to join! Since you are an engineering student, it is encouraged that you join at least one engineering-related organization. The quality of your involvement (depth of contributions and long-term commitment) is valued more than quantity.
You can see department-sponsored and College-sponsored organizations by using the category filter feature found at the top left. You can also search for a particular word using the search bar at the top right. This list of engineering-related organizations has been carefully created by the HWCOE Center for Experiential Learning.
