What makes Alpha Omega Epsilon different from the other sororities?

Alpha Omega Epsilon is a professional and social sorority. We hold a variety of events such as professional, social, sisterhood, and philanthropy. All of our members were at some point engineers. Therefore, we form a strong bond through our courses and even through other extracurricular activities. We have a strong alumnae network that are willing and able to assist in furthering our careers.
