Invitation to Community Engagement
Our school’s mission is to educate future generations of engineering and technology talent equipped with competencies to excel in life, at work and in society.
These competencies extend from leadership and problem-solving skills to the ability to apply myriad technologies in diverse settings.
To this end, we deliver a holistic approach to teaching and learning that includes a focus on authentic practice through experiential education.
Relationships are the cornerstone of experiential education.
This is why we actively reach out to the wider community - local, national and international - to engage a mix of partners from industry, government and the not-for-profit sector.
These partners provide our faculty, students and staff with complex challenges that call for interdisciplinary solutions which involve engineering and technology.
SEPT appreciates the opportunity to collaborate with partners in fields such as healthcare, smart cities, climate resiliency, low carbon transportation, and advanced manufacturing ~ including the adoption of new and emerging technologies in small and medium size enterprises.
These engagements advance work to create a more just, prosperous and sustainable world while offering our students a platform to grow personally and professionally.
Together, we are making a positive impact on people and our planet.
I encourage you to explore this section of our website to learn more about SEPT’s community engagement practice, sample projects, and opportunities to get involved.
