Business Tours
The SME motto is MEET/KNOW/GROW.
Attending the tours allows you to MEET other enginering professionals in the Middle Tennessee area.
After the tour you KNOW how your peers are performing business functions that you could learn from. Their end product may not be the same as yours, but how they get there could provide you better information in how to do your own design.
MEETing your peers and KNOWing how others are performing functions allows you to GROW into a better engineer, student, individual and more!
