Pi Tau Sigma is a national Mechanical Engineering Honor Society
that seeks to unify exceptional students so that they may use their talents
in the service of others. According to the PTS constitution, "The object
of this organization shall be to encourage and recognize superior
scholarship, to foster the high ideals of the engineering profession, to
stimulate interest in coordinating departmental activities, to promote the
mutual professional welfare of its members, and to develop in students of
mechanical engineering the attributes necessary for effective leadership and
the taking up the responsibilities of a citizen living in a democracy."
The first PTS chapter was installed in 1915 at the University of Illinois.
From that point, the organization has expanded to include over 150 active
chapters. Oregon State's Omega Chapter was established nearly 40 years ago.
Today, our PTS chapter seeks to provide its members with social activities,
leadership positions, and beneficial networking opportunities with both
colleagues and industry.
