The Capstone Engineering Society is the alumni association of the College of Engineering. This group of professionals supports growth, fosters relationships, encourages philanthropy, invests in students and engages alumni via fundraising, events and networking.
Membership is granted with a gift to the CES annual fund, which provides need-based assistance for students, student organizations and competition teams and removes barriers for participation and involvement.
During the 2023-2024 academic year, 51 engineering or computer science students were awarded nearly $103,000 in scholarships, with more than half receiving funds in the fall and spring semester.
In addition to providing vital scholarship dollars to deserving students, the CES engages in other impactful programs within the College of Engineering:

“While the encouragement we receive from professors and professional staff is a great motivator, it is the personal drive created by a true feeling of investment and belonging that drive each and every one of us to do more, and to be more, for ourselves and the family that has taken us in here. My education has taken off with your action as an integral catalyst.” – Jimmy McGrath, Computer Engineering, Senior
“Your gift lessens the financial burdens of this endeavor on my family…. I know that my education is giving me the tools I need to succeed as a chemical engineer. In the future I can see myself applying the knowledge I have accumulated as well as the interpersonal skills I have developed through my engineering classes and involvement in extracurricular activities to become a well-regarded and exceptional engineer….With your support I know I can do great things with my future.” – Annaliese Baietto, Chemical Engineering
