Students eligible for membership must be ranked in the upper one-fifth of the junior class or the upper one-third of the senior class. The goals of the organization are To confer recognition upon the students of industrial engineering who have shown exceptional academic achievement, to further unify the student body of the Industrial Engineering, and create a closer student-faculty relationship, and to assist and cooperate with all organizations and persons working for the interest of industrial engineering. The Alphi Pi Mu Miami Chapter accomplishes these goals by sponsoring picnics, faculty-student mixers, high school tutoring programs, and various other activities throughout the year.
