Chevron 

A Sustaining Partner in the Chair's Circle

Chevron has been one of the most valuable and long-term partners of the Mechanical Engineering Program and the MIE Department.

Chevron investment includes a major gift towards the upgrade and renewal of the Mechanical Engineering Undergraduate Laboratories in 2015, sponsoring one Capstone Design project per year since 2014, funding undergraduate scholarships for many years, and contributing to the MIE Departmental general fund, which supports student and faculty educational and research activities. In addition Chevron is a regular contributor to the ASME Student Chapter.
