To help achieve the vision of "STEM leadership--Diverse scholarship" the McCoy College of Science, Mathematics and Engineering (MCOSME) supports a wide range of student organizations in sciences, technology, engineering and mathematics.
The student organizations help extend the knowledge from the disciplines into new areas of service and research. Many of our organizations are connected with regional and national organizations that provide networking at conferences. All provide students with the ability to lead others and gain valuable experience for future employment or postgraduate education. These organizations also serve our community through volunteering and fundraising for the betterment of our campus and the Wichita Falls region.
