Theta Tau is the oldest, largest, and foremost international co-ed professional fraternity for engineers. The purpose of Theta Tau is to develop and maintain a high standard of professional interest among its members, and to unite them in a strong bond of fraternal fellowship. Since its founding in 1904, over 40,000 members have been initiated over the years. With an emphasis on quality and a strong fraternal bond, Theta Tau at UMD has initiated over 300 members since 2011. The University of Maryland engineering students who join the Eta Delta chapter meet like-minded brothers who engage in challenges outside of what they normally encounter in the classroom. They assume leadership roles, organize professional and social events, develop a professional network, and help out in the College Park and Washington D.C. community. Many of our members are leaders of other organizations on campus as well, such as the Student Government Association, QUEST, Engineers Without Borders, Clark School Ambassadors, Engineering Study Abroad, Images, and technical societies like SHPE, NSBE, SWE, IEEE, and ASME.
