ThinkTank
About This Organization
- Abbreviation(s):
- TTT
- Purpose:
- TAMU Think Tank aims to provide a platform for students to compete in real engineering crowdsourcing competitions and present to real professionals in industry-leading companies while teaching the leadership and self-discipline needed to run a completely independent team. The organization will allow any undergraduate attending Texas A&M University to join and allow them to compete in crowdsourcing engineering competitions on platforms such as AIAA and HeroX. The organization allows students hands-on experience and skills such as CAD, Blender, Professional Writing, and the Engineering Process. It will also give students the opportunity to present their designs or submission to industry professionals. Our team decided to form this club after winning 4th place in the NASA Waste Jettison Mechanism Challenge. We wanted to share our experience with other students in the hopes that they will compete and gain knowledge from the numerous engineering crowdsourcing challenges today.
