ASME and Car Club members are currently promoting the event and soliciting car participants and additional sponsors to help offset expenses so that all proceeds can be used to fund these opportunities for students.<\/p>\n
Anyone interested in participating in the car show, becoming a sponsor or donating a gift basket or raffle prizes is asked to contact Grant Lewis at gal5388@psu.edu, or Matthew Fusco, car club president, at mjf6880@psu.edu, for both sponsorship and\/or car participant-related contacts.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a newly formed organization, the chapter is focused on building a strong foundation that will provide long-term value to students pursuing engineering and related fields,\u201d Lewis explained. \u201cLaunching a new chapter comes with unique challenges, but also significant potential. With the right support, this organization can quickly grow into a hub for hands-on learning, professional development, and industry connection \u2014 bringing opportunities to campus that were previously limited or unavailable.\u201d<\/p>\n
Members can participate in design competitions, attend professional conferences and engage in networking events that connect them directly with industry professionals. The group is also interested in bringing guest speakers to campus \u2014 especially experienced engineers \u2014 who bring valuable insight and mentorship, helping students better understand what it takes to succeed in the industry.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese experiences allow students to apply engineering concepts to real-world challenges, develop technical and leadership skills, and gain exposure to career pathways within the engineering field,\u201d Lewis said. \u201cThese opportunities are open not only to engineering students, but to anyone interested in innovation, design, and technology, making the chapter a valuable resource for the entire campus community.\u201d<\/p>\n
ASME is a globally recognized professional organization known for setting industry standards in mechanical systems such as elevators, escalators, and pressure equipment. Beyond its technical influence, the organization plays a key role in shaping the next generation of engineers through conferences and research events, including the International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition, where students and professionals collaborate and share innovations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ASME and Car Club members are currently promoting the event and soliciting car participants and additional sponsors to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":162307,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[178,180,179],"class_list":["post-162306","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-scranton","tag-scranton","tag-scranton-headlines","tag-scranton-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/162306","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=162306"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/162306\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/162307"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=162306"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=162306"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=162306"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
