OSPE Committees
OSPE runs 11 committees, each playing a vital role in supporting OSPE’s success. Each committee is made up of members of OSPE’s Board of Directors who use their specialized skills to make strategic policy decisions regarding OSPE’s finances, advise OSPE’s CEO, raise funds for engineering scholarships and more. As a member-driven organization, OSPE relies on the energy and commitment of volunteers to support our programs and activities.
