Chapter Purpose
- Scholarship: To help our members achieve scholastically, we bring in guest speakers from organizations and facilities on campus and off campus. Some examples include the Office of Professional Practice (DoPP), the Office of International Education (OIE), Kaplan, and representatives from companies like Google and Lockheed Martin.
- Leadership: Any member may become an officer as soon as he or she joins. Unlike many organizations, this provides an opportunity to lead from an early time at Georgia Tech.
- Service: Averaging about once every three weeks, the NSCS chapter sponsors a community service project. These include projects at Tech like TeamBuzz and Tech Beautification Day as well as off campus projects like Project MedShare, the Mad Housers, Light the Night, Habitat for Humanity, and many more. See the calendar for the schedule of community service events.
