Ways to Engage

EPICS was initiated as a two-way partnership between the university and the community. The EPICS Corporate/Foundation Partners Program expands this relationship to a three-way partnership of the university, the community, and industry.

Your involvement can be either in the form of leadership support (please see information below) and/or financial support both at the local program level as well as the national program level.

Possible forms of leadership support that you can provide include:

• Guest Speaker: Share your thoughts and professional experiences with EPICS students by serving as a guest speaker during a lecture class.
• Team Advisor: Advise an EPICS team at an EPICS site.
• Corporate EPICS Ambassador: There are many ways that you can network within your own company to advance the efforts of the EPICS Program. These include:
  • Resource Acquisition: Leverage resources from your employer to help sponsor an EPICS team.
  • Leadership Identification: Help to identify leaders in your organization who might also become future advocates for the EPICS Program.
• Design Reviewer: Serve as a technical reviewer for EPICS teams.
