What is Pi Tau Sigma?
Pi Tau Sigma is an international mechanical engineering honor society that consists of current and former ME students. Pi Tau Sigma was founded at the University of Illinois in 1915 on the principles of integrity, service, and leadership. To this day, over 150 chapters of the club spread across the country provide service to their communities and a place for mechanical engineers to congregate.

What does the Cal Poly chapter do?
The Cal Poly SLO chapter of Pi Tau Sigma is dedicated to serving both its members and the community.
The benefits of membership include social and professional events. Social events give you a chance to get to know your peers in Cal Poly's mechanical engineering program. Professional events, such as our Evenings with Industry, are a great opportunity to learn more about the world of professional engineers and make connections for your future career.
Additionally, our Pi Tau Sigma chapter enjoys being involved in helping the community. Five hours of community of service are required for each new member, and we participate in various other community service events.
