In 1999, engineering students at The University of Texas at Austin, with a strong passion for community service, founded a student organization focusing on both engineering and public service. The organization, Student Engineers Educating Kids (SEEK), started with a pilot program at Kealing Middle School.
Since then, SEEK has grown impressively and now has mentors at both secondary and elementary schools around the greater Austin area.
Today, the organization includes over 100 student Engineering mentors in the Cockrell School of Engineering and other departments at The University of Texas, making it one of the biggest outreach programs.
