The primary focus of the Mechanical Engineering Club (“Mech Club”, “the Mech Club”) is to facilitate communication between the Engineering Society, the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (the Department), and the undergraduate Mechanical Engineering student body. Mech Club provides the Mechanical Engineering student body with resources for academic advocacy and support as well as networking and professional development.
The Club also organizes social events, such as the annual MIE Dinner Dance, book smokers, BBQs, and holiday gatherings to enhance the undergraduate experience and bring students together. Mech Club emphasizes the importance of mental health and wellness by hosting related events and workshops for the mechanical engineering community to raise awareness and create a positive and open environment. Mech Club’s mentorship program aims to bridge the gap between different years so students can exchange knowledge, advice, and experience. The Club strives to create a positive and accepting community for Mechanical engineering students, contributing to the network of all other disciplines and faculties at the University of Toronto (the University).
