The EERI-SEAOSC chapter at UCLA represents two larger organizations. The Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) is an international, nonprofit, technical society dedicated to reducing seismic risk worldwide (https://www.eeri.org/). To this end, our chapter hosts various research events and guest speakers, and also attends academic conferences. We aid in connecting undergraduates to research assistantships in the Civil & Environmental Engineering Department. The Structural Engineering Association of Southern California (SEAOSC) exists to empower the regional community of structural engineers and advance the profession (). To this end, our student chapter partners with companies in the Southern California area to host office visits and other networking events to connect students with professionals. Through these events, student members can access reputable internship and employment opportunities.

Our chapter is open to all students in the Civil & Environmental Engineering Department, as well as related fields (architecture, urban planning, etc). Our Fall General Meeting will be Tuesday, October 6th at 6PM via ZOOM. Please connect with us on Facebook, visit our website, or email uclaeeri@gmail.com for more details.
