What is SASE?

The Society of Asian Scientists and Engineers (SASE) is dedicated to advancing Asian Americans in the Sciences, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) fields to achieve their full career potential. SASE provides API-targeted leadership development, award recognition, STEM competitions, and community. They are a go-to organization for talent and leadership serving over 10,000 people including professionals, students, companies, and government organizations. 

SASE was founded in 2007 after a realization that organizations that existed with other affinity groups in mind — the Society of Women Engineers, the National Society of Black Engineers, and the Society of Hispanic Engineers — there was a need for an organization that represented all of the pan Asian cultures so students and professionals can connect and feel supported.

Why go to SASE’s STEM Connect?

  • Connect with recruiters, companies, and government organizations to learn about career opportunities
  • Network with attendees and community members
  • Learn about career development and even get help with your resumé
  • Attend sessions and panels with experts on cultural agility and skills development
