Help Us Inspire the Next Generation of Diverse Texas Engineers!
Explore Volunteer Opportunities with TAME
TAME supports the potential of students from Black, Hispanic, and Native American communities, as well as girls, to pursue their engineering dreams. TAME is free to all participants. Help us keep it that way by getting involved as a volunteer or making a donation.
Competition Volunteer Opportunities
There are three types of volunteer opportunities for the TAME Regional Engineering Competitions:
- Set-up & Check-in Volunteers: help us prepare the space for our TAME Engineers.
- Design Challenge Judges: support our budding engineers as they tackle this year’s engineering challenge by asking them questions and assessing their work according to our rubric. Training provided!
- Clean-up Volunteers: celebrate the conclusion of a great event and help the TAME team leave the space as we found it.
TAME’s Regional Engineering Competitions bring together thousands of students to build new connections, tackle a collaborative engineering challenge, and make their case to the judges.
