About_Us

What does MEGSS do?

MEGSS provides a student voice on departmental issues like faculty selection and curriculum matters. In this way, the concerns of the graduate students help shape the way the ME graduate program is run. To facilitate this, members of MEGSS attend select faculty meetings and sit on the Graduate Studies Committee and the Faculty Search Committees.

In addition to offering feedback to the faculty and department, we actively plan and sponsor social events to promote intra-departmental interaction between faculty, staff, and students across all years and research areas.

We also provide information and guidance to incoming and current ME graduate students to help them make informed decisions about their academic careers.

All ME grads are encouraged to participate in our activities. If you are interested in being a part of the things we do, please e-mail us at the address given below or contact one of people listed. Any feedback or suggestions for improvement that you might have are also welcome!

You can contact us by email ( megss@mail.mech.northwestern.edu ) or send a message here.
