In Theta Tau, we value education beyond the limits of the classroom. In order to develop professionally, we hold resume workshops, mock interviews, and company tours. One of our chapter's most valuable assets is our strong communication with the alumni of the chapter. Our brothers are in a network of elite companies that span a wide range of engineering disciplines.
