At the beginning of every GT academic semester, Alpha Pi Mu recognizes and reaches out to ISyE students of excellence and provides them with the opportunity of joining APM. In order to introduce APM to these students, an Initiation Information session is held before the actual initiation.

 

The event was held in Instructional Center at GT campus from 5pm to 6pm. Food and APM-logo T-shirts were given to coming students. The President of APM and Vice President of Finance of APM presented themselves at the event. Within the hour, they gave a brief introduction on APM to the new students. They touched on the following topics in their presentation: history of APM, requirement to join APM, academic and professional opportunities APM provides and companies who are currently sponsoring APM. After the presentation, some great questions and future ideas were raised from the floor. For example, some students were interested in a research fair. They suggested that APM could connect their students with ISyE faculty professors to learn more about undergraduate research opportunities.
