Posted on December 7, 2015

The University of South 青涩直播 chapter of Tau Beta Pi, the national engineering honor society, has been recognized by the organization as the number one chapter in the country for the 2014-2015 academic year. The USA chapter is the first chapter in state history to receive this award.
The University鈥檚 Tau Beta Pi chapter is particularly active in community service, participating in numerous K-12 projects such as the Jubilee Best Robotics and Engaging Youth through Engineering programs, and as tutors at Dunbar Creative and Performing Arts Magnet School. In Mobile鈥檚 business community, Tau Beta Pi projects included a resume workshop with company representatives from Airbus, Austal USA, Hargrove Engineers + Constructors, Prism Systems, Southern Company and Thompson Engineering.
鈥淲e are immensely proud of USA鈥檚 chapter of Tau Beta Pi for receiving the award as the best chapter in the nation,鈥 said Dr. John Steadman, dean of the College of Engineering. 鈥淭his is the first time any engineering college in 青涩直播 has received this recognition and it reflects outstanding leadership by our engineering students. They have proven themselves to be the 鈥榖est of the best.鈥欌
Officers include President Bradley Harris, a chemical engineering major from Mobile; Vice President Caden Moore, a mechanical engineering major from Slidell, La.; Corresponding Secretary Robert Mines, a chemical engineering major from Pensacola, Fla.; Recording Secretary Ben Burleson, a chemical engineering major from Satsuma; and Treasurer Tyler Ready, an electrical engineering major from St. Stephens.
Earlier this year, nine Tau Beta Pi members were awarded national scholarships for their senior year at South 青涩直播. No other university in 青涩直播 had more than two recipients, and the USA contingent was the second-largest university representation in the country.
