Conference Supporters

Conference sponsors and affiliates play an important role in supporting the FYEE conference. This support subsidizes the cost of the meal functions and special events. We appreciate these supporters and the part they play in making the 2017 FYEE conference an outstanding event.

The 2017 First Year Engineering Experience Conference is supported financially by the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Engineering Fundamentals Department and the First-Year Programs Division of the American Society for Engineering Education.

The conference received start-up money in 2012 from the National Science Foundation to help develop the mission of the conference and has since been supported primarily by the host institutions.

Over 200 academic representatives are expected at this conference. Participants will include college deans, department chairpersons, and faculty in engineering and engineering technology, engineering student service staff and advisors, plus industry leaders from throughout the country. The majority of the attendees, however, are engineering and engineering technology faculty. These attendees also help support the conference.
