University of Texas at San Antonio, Kappa Upsilon

Our mission is to provide the students in our organization with opportunities to advance their leadership skills and to become active members of our society and communities. In the process, we hope to form friendships that will last throughout our lifetimes. The Kappa Upsilon chapter specializes in providing professional development opportunities and tutoring services to the students of the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA). Our most notable initiative is our partnership with UTSA’s Electrical and Computer Engineering department to provide free volunteer lead tutoring services to ECE students. The Electrical and Computer Engineering Learning Lounge (ECELL) is where we assist students with their studies. Additionally, the ECELL serves as our chapter’s headquarters on campus.

I'm glad to be a member of IEEE-HKN! The Kappa Upsilon chapter has helped me grow in my leadership, professional, and technical skills. What I enjoy the most is seeing the impact of our volunteer tutoring program. Seeing student's faces bright up when they grasp a concept is always a joy
