General Information
ASME company luncheons are held for the benefit of students and industry representatives. Company representatives get a chance to talk to students about what they do and the opportunities available for students (summer/co-op/permanent). Students get a chance to find out in more detail about companies and laboratories that they are interested in working for. These events are usually held between 12:30 and 1:30 in a lecture hall on our engineering campus. Representatives usually provide general information about their company, industry, and current projects and undertakings.  Students then get a chance to ask questions and are encouraged to speak one-on-one with the representatives. Average attendance is 50 students. These events can also be held in the evening barring any scheduling conflicts. For further details, please contact us at asmebusiness "at" umich.edu.

World Class Engineering College
As you may know, the University of Michigan is one of the top engineering schools in the nation; our mechanical engineering department is ranked #4 in undergraduate and #5 in graduate programs by U.S. News & World Report. Our students are well trained in the practice of engineering and are highly prepared for the work force upon graduation. An ASME company luncheon gives you a better opportunity to reach these bright students interested in working for you.

Our Society
The ASME chapter at the University of Michigan is one of the most active engineering societies on campus among a total of over 70 engineering societies and groups. We are officially recognized by all governing bodies (student and administration) at the University of Michigan. We hold a 501(c)(3) tax exemption status from the IRS and are a non-profit organization. Our mission is to advance and disseminate the theory and practice of mechanical engineering and related fields; to present a proper perspective of engineering work; and enrich the lives of our members through a variety of activities and social events.

Cost of an ASME Luncheon
Companies hosting a luncheon with ASME are asked to donate to our society to help us cover the cost of food and other supplies for the event. We ask for a tax deductible donation between $200-$300; this pays for lunch for 50 students and costs associated with setting up the event. You may donate more if you wish; your generosity will be greatly appreciated by ASME. Food arrangements will be handled by the ASME officers; special requests can be handled with adequate notice.
