American Society of Mechanical Engineers

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

These speaker series promote networking and educational opportunities not given within a typical classroom experience. Additionally, the organization hosts multiple fundraising events to help alleviate costs for all the educational experiences the organization has to offer. In the fall of 2019, The Gaming Marathon Fundraiser raised over $1500 that was then donated to Children's Miracle Network. Every year TSC promotes attendance to the Washington Center's National Security Seminar hosted in Washington, D.C. In 2014, RMU was nationally recognized with the University of the Year Award thanks to the efforts of TSC during the seminar.
