The National Honor Society for the Earth Sciences: Delta Theta Chapter

Objective

The Society was established to recognize scholarship and professionalism in the Earth Sciences.

How Can I Join?

Any person in any branch of the Earth Sciences who has completed at least 10 credit hours in Earth Science courses and has maintained a minimum 3.0 G.P.A. (on a 4.0 system) in all Earth Science courses together with an overall G.P.A. of 2.67 in all college courses is qualified for membership.

Why Should I Join?

Membership in Sigma Gamma Epsilon shows prospective employers or colleagues that you are professionally motivated and are at least a “B” average student. Membership also provides a professional network among RPI students, professionals in the field, and at other universities. It shows that you are dedicated to the RPI Earth and Environmental Science department.

What We Do?

We help out the RPI Earth and Environmental Science department with Institute events, for example Accepted Students day. We have regular meetings where we discuss events we would like to participate in, field trips, fund raising activities, and most importantly the future of the RPI Sigma Gamma Epsilon Delta Theta Chapter.
