Membership requirements
Membership was chosen from the upper one-third of the Junior and Senior classes at recognized engineering schools. Selection from those men and women are made on the further basis of practicality and sociability. Approval of at least three engineering faculty is required. Distinguished members of the engineering profession may be admitted as alumni members.
