SHARE Program
Since the Fall of 1994, the Department of Mechanical Engineering has conducted an annual program called SHARE, or Special Homecoming for Alumni Residence in Engineering. In this program, we recognize the accomplishments of our graduates, provide our students and faculty with an opportunity to interact with the SHARE participants, and especially give the current students information on how the careers of these selected graduates have developed. To date, we have had 37 distinguished alumni participate with us in the SHARE program.   We seek participants who are completing distinguished careers as well as those with significant accomplishments in mid-career, to provide a range of perspectives for our students.
