Our dedicated committees make the work we do at Chalmers possible! We are currently looking for new committee members. If you or someone you know has experience in any of the following fields and would like to get involved, we would love to hear from you!

Finance Committee

The Finance Committee plans the budget for the year and discusses the financing of upcoming projects. This committee completes most of their work via email, so in-person meetings are only held as-needed. (1-1.5hrs / month)

Microfinance Committee

The Personnel Committee assists the Board of Directors with Human Resource responsibilities for Chalmers employees. This committee meets a minimum of twice per year, though additional meetings may be called by the Chair if needed. (<1 hr / 6 months)
