 * SAME Student Chapter Info:**

S.A.M.E. is an organization made up of not only military engineers, but the public and private sector engineering and construction professionals who work with the military. S.A.M.E individual members and member firms encompass all fields of engineering and construction, as the military supports a vast array of engineering and research projects. The overarching goal of the organization is to promote and facilitate interaction between this diverse group to enhance support of national security.

As part of the student chapter at the University of North Florida, the Jacksonville Post will provide you with the opportunity to interact with local professionals and learn what opportunities are available once you graduate. Cultivating relationships through our mentoring program, potential internships, and hands on activities provided through the Jacksonville Post and the UNF Student Chapter will give you an insight into the professional world waiting for you after school. S.A.M.E. will also provide you the opportunity to earn scholarships, mentor local high school and elementary school kids and participate social events sponsored by the Jacksonville Post.

Best of all membership in this S.A.M.E. Student Chapter is free. There are no dues, no membership fee. Further information on the organization along with free on-line registration can be found at [|www.same.org]. Feel free to register now or wait until after the first meeting. A follow up e-mail will be sent as soon as the first meeting is scheduled in the next few weeks.
