Take Action

Opportunities for UIUC Students

Within our Engineers in Action organization, our members are split up into several different teams. Depending on their interests and goals, students can join one or more teams to their liking, and have different options for the workload they decide to take on. If you or someone you think would be interested is a student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, check out our descriptions of each team and their jobs within the process! We hope you’ll find one that fits.
