SASE: Soaring to New Heights

“This past year has undoubtedly been the most impactful one for SASE Rensselaer since our inception, but we’ve managed to bounce back stronger than ever. To continue our efforts in helping students connect with professionals and invaluable opportunities, we would like to ask you for a hand in funding our community-driven aspirations.” - Kevin Siu ’22, SASE President

The Mission

We are the Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers. We are a professional student organization comprised of members who are eager and excited about our professional careers after college. All donations through weR Gold will directly offset the costs for students to pursue professional opportunities, both at RPI and at the Northeast Regional Conference. Donations allow SASE to send more members to this conference and members will be able to learn many networking skills needed to further them in their professional careers. Attending this event will also help us represent our school among other chapters. We sincerely appreciate any form of support. 

What You're Supporting

Supporting this project will greatly benefit members of our society. Our membership is predominantly comprised of Asian Americans. Any form of support will help this minority group succeed in our careers. Under today’s political climate, minorities and immigrants often face bias and bigoted rhetoric across most clerical industries. We hope that through our efforts and the help of benevolent individuals, we can better prepare ourselves for the career paths we are about to embark upon. 

The SASE Northeast Regional Conference is one of the biggest collegiate professional events held on the east coast and invites recruiters from many well-established companies, such as P&G, Boeing, and GE. We strive to provide our members with the best experience possible by giving them a chance to network and learn from these companies and attend the various professional workshops available to strengthen their skills and portfolio. This is bolstered by the professional events that SASE Rensselaer holds, such as resume and elevator pitch critiques, corporate sponsor info sessions, and collaborative events with other professional organizations. To help fund these events, and push the boundaries on what SASE Rensselaer as an organization is able to do, we request that you consider supporting us through a donation so that we can give our members the best resources and experience possible. 

Who We Are

Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers dates back to 2007. The RPI Chapter of SASE was founded in 2014. The organization is dedicated to the advancement of students of Asian heritage. We greatly emphasize career development during college in order to help them prepare for and transition into their aspiring career. The RPI chapter of SASE seeks to reflect the same values the organization is founded upon. For more information, check out our Facebook page or website!
