About Us

Tau Beta Pi is the only engineering honor society representing the entire engineering profession. It is the nation's second-oldest honor society, founded at Lehigh University in 1885 to mark in a fitting manner those who have conferred honor upon their Alma Mater by distinguished scholarship and exemplary character as students in engineering, or by their attainments as alumni in the field of engineering, and to foster a spirit of liberal culture in engineering colleges. There are 258 active collegiate chapters and 52 active alumni chapters across the country, and a total initiated membership of over 640,000

Tau Beta Pi MN-Alpha is the chapter at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. Our group aims to connect engineering students and provide opportunities for leadership, community service, and professional development.
