- The mission of the TAMU Fluid Power Club (TAMU FPC) will be to provide engineering students, specifically those in the Engineering Technology & Industrial Distribution (ETID) department, with opportunities to learn about fluid power through industry nights, networking, projects, and research.

Through these activities the club will foster a sense of community, leadership, and ethical academic excellence.
