Who Can Join?
Anybody can join the NMT SPE Student Chapter, and students with a current valid membership as an SPE Student Member may serve as officers in the club. Any students seeking a degree in petroleum engineering (or a related field) and carry at least 30% of normal full-time academic load may apply to be an SPE Student Member. The SPE requires us to have at least 15 SPE Student Members attending our university, so membership with the SPE is highly advised for petroleum engineering students (not to mention all the other benefits such membership comes with). Being a club member of NMT SPE and being a Student Member with SPE are two different things: the former allows you to participate in our club's activities on- and off-campus, while the latter allows you to participate (and qualify for discounts) in the SPE organization's various activities.
