A range of student clubs and societies exist within the Faculty of Engineering
to enhance your campus experience and connect you with other
engineering students with similar interests or backgrounds.
You should also think about joining special interest groups and support
groups within the Student Union and Melbourne University Sport.

Engineers Without Borders (University of Melbourne chapter)
EWB Melbourne University has members from all engineering disciplines
across the all departments at the university. Through educational
seminars, social events and community projects, we aim to give
these students, and the broader university community, an opportunity
to learn about and participate in sustainable development projects.
Through outreach events we also hope to reach the wider Australian community
and in particular school students, to promote a more positive
view of engineering and the enormous potential of the field to benefit
disadvantaged communities.

International Engineering Students' Society (IESS)
The International Engineering Student Society (IESS) is a Faculty-based
society aimed at broadening student outlooks and heightening
respect for cultural diversity in the faculty of engineering. All year
round, we reach out to our members through a smorgasbord of academic and
social activities.
Activities and programs organised by IESS:
IESS Mentor Scheme
The Mentor Scheme is a support network for international students. During
orientation, new international students will have the opportunity to interact
with mentors, who are likely to be later year engineering students. These
mentors will organise activities to help students make new friends and
widen their social network.
Mentors will also aid students with the transition to living and studying
in Australia.
Trips
At least twice every semester, the IESS activity officer organises exciting
trips to scenic destinations such as the Mornington Peninsula and Lake
Entrance.
Lunch Gatherings
The free lunch gatherings on campus are initiatives to provide all members
with the opportunity to mingle and keep in contact with one another in
a comfortable social setting. Guest speakers are also sometimes invited
to speak.
And more:
IESS has hosted exchange students during their visit to the University
of Melbourne. Students were shown the various tourist attractions around
Melbourne, and taken on industrial visits related to their engineering
field.
At the start of every semester, the IESS also organises a book swap for
the convenience of all engineering students.
