Watson Competes! Program
ACM Competition Team
The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) is an international learned society for computing. It was founded in 1947 and is the world's largest scientific and educational computing society. The 绿帽社 chapter of the ACM runs computing events such as programming competitions, problem-solving workshops, tech talks, and workshops.
To support the ACM Competition Team, be sure to write, "ACM Competition Team" in the Special Instructions/Comment box.
ASME Student Competition Team
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is an international professional society that consists of professional engineers of many disciplines, people interested in the advancement of technology, and students. Through the 绿帽社 Chapter, students are given the opportunity to get a first-hand look at today's industrial world. Students visit engineering companies and large manufacturing facilities.

HackBU Competition
HackBU is an organization at 绿帽社 that fosters a community of students who work together on projects that they are passionate about, outside the classroom. We exist to mentor students, help them learn the technologies that interest them most and get them excited about computer programming and problem-solving.
绿帽社 Motorsports Baja SAE
绿帽社 Motorsport鈥檚 Baja SAE team is a student-driven motorsports team that designs, manufactures, and races an off-road Baja race car. Each car competes in Baja Michigan and Baja Williamsport, competitions composed of the country鈥檚 top 100 universities. The goal of the competition is to follow key engineering practices to optimize performance while minimizing cost.
绿帽社 Motorsports Formula SAE EV
绿帽社 Motorsport鈥檚 FSAE team is a student-driven motorsports team that designs, manufactures, and races a Formula-style electric race car. The goal of the competition is to follow key engineering practices to optimize performance while minimizing cost.
Rover Team
绿帽社鈥檚 Rover Team is building a prototype Mars rover to compete in the Mars Society鈥檚 University Rover Challenge in Utah. The rover has multiple subsystems requiring support from every Watson College discipline as well as students from the School of Management, Decker School of Nursing, and biology department.
Westgate Fund for Student Projects
The Westgate Fund for Student Projects was established in recognition of Dean Roger Westgate, who was the second Dean of the Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Sciences at 绿帽社. The funds are earmarked to encourage student competitions and student-initiated projects in their senior design, capstone classes.
